I originally trained as a Probation Officer. However, after only a few years in the role, my father was diagnosed with terminal cancer and mother with Multiple sclerosis. I decided to care for them myself and this led to a love of caring and a twenty year career! I have worked for two agencies and eight private clients. I have had live in roles and visiting and found I prefer roles in a residential setting or with at least a few hours with a client.
I am completeing my Level 3 diploma in Health and Social Care. I have a great deal of experiencw with many varying ages and conditions of clients.
I am a hands-on team player who can reliably work well independently. I love the satisfaction of helping people succeed. I have a great sense of humour, a lively approach to work, am approachable and a helpful person which I hope will be an asset to any organisation.
I am ready to work. I have a full DBS and I can start immediately and no holidays are booked this year.
