Am a very determined and highly motivated person. I do take my job seriously but am able to see things in perspective and believe l'm quite easy going to work with. I'm an optimist rather than a pessimist but l'm also a realist and I cope well when the going gets tough. I'm very good at finding solutions to problems. Above all I would say l'm a positive and enthusiastic person.
For the past 15 years I have been working as a carer/ support worker. I have worked with vulnerable clients in their own homes and children in residential homes. I have looked after people with dementia, alzheimers, stroke etc. During this time I have proven my ability to work with an interdisciplinary team, utilised my interpersonal skills by developing strong professional relationships with clients, including individuals, families and community groups. During the course of my career I have acquired a thorough understanding of Health and Safety, Equal Opportunities, Risk management, Data Protection and confidentiality. Having worked in both public and private organisations in the care sector, I am fully aware of the needs of the individual and the importance of team work. My strong verbal and written communication skills have been well utilised in these roles. I have a strong desire to make a positive difference in people‘s lives. If u require more information I would be happy to provide it and can be contacted either by telephone on the numbers on my CV.
