Updated 1 day ago
I am 59 years old with over 40 years of care work experience. I began my career as a carer at the age of 17 and over the years have had the privilege of caring/assisting people of all age groups varying from complex needs physically and mentally. Most of my career has been within the NHS as a front line emergency medic and I have had a change of lifestyle as I know my love is dealing with everyday challenges that face everyday life for all, Ido this with great enthusiasm as I believe in the after care of the individual is as vital an necessary to continue to live according to the ability to the needy and also their `right` to do so. I have a love for nature, gardening, cooking, many different crafts, music, reading and love meeting the elderly . I previously lived in Devon and was working with Southwestern Ambulance Service NHS as a front line medic so I know all regions in the southwest very well. I registered as a self employed live in carer in September in 2016 and have supported various clients within their own home including end of life care.
