I would be grateful if you could consider me for this position. As I now know I have the perfect skills and sentiment for this type of work. I have worked in the private care sector in a care home for the elderly. However having to leave after Dad passed away with Alzheimer's disease to move back into the family home to care for my Mother as she was bed bound. So for the last 6 years I have been caring for mum unfortunately mum developed Dementia after the first 2 years and sadly passed away on June 2016. This made me feel I'm destined to be a full time carer, although I'm an Engineer to trade, my heart now is more in caring for our elderly. I am a 56 year old male and I have no inhibitions on this type of commitment, I now live on my own with no dependents.
