Hello,
My name is Viktoria and I am an experienced and compassionate live-in care provider, I offer personalised , client-centred services to help individuals recover and thrive in the comfort of their own homes.
I am actively seeking a role where I can apply my skills to assist in post-operative rehabilitation, provide ongoing care, and support those with complex health needs.
I specialise in a broad range of live-in care services, including but not limited to:
- Meal Planning & Preparation: Designing, cooking, and preparing nutritious meals tailored to individual needs.
- Comprehensive Care: Supporting individuals with disabilities, complex spinal trauma, post-operative care, dementia, cancer, and other health conditions.
- Rehabilitation Assistance: Providing physical therapy support for muscular rehabilitation.
- Proficient with Mobility Aids: Skilled in using hoists, Sara Stedy, wheelchairs, and catheters to assist with mobility and personal care.
- Medication Management: Administering medications and ensuring timely and accurate delivery.
- Personal Care: Assisting with hygiene, catheter care, bed bathing, grooming.
- Companionship & Emotional Support: Providing a compassionate, empathetic, and supportive presence.
- General Assistance: Helping with household chores, caring for pets, coordinating transportation and driving to medical and hospital appointments.
I am deeply committed to delivering care with the highest level of dignity and respect, treating every individual as I would wish to be treated. My approach is patient, empathetic, and empowering, with a strong focus on enhancing the quality of life for those under my care.
In my previous roles, I have supported individuals with mobility challenges, complex spinal injuries, dementia, and cancer.
I have extensive experience in performing essential care duties, including personal hygiene, rehabilitation support, and light housekeeping.
I hold an undergraduate degree in Physiology and Biomechanics and a postgraduate degree in Nutrition, which enables me to offer evidence-based support for health and recovery.
As a former strength athlete, I am physically capable of assisting with lifting and mobility support. This strength, combined with my knowledge, proved invaluable when I cared for my 74-year-old mother during her battle with cancer in 2024. I moved in full-time for eight months to manage her care, medications, diet, and recovery. Through tailored support and dedication, I successfully guided her to a full recovery.
I also hold a full UK driving licence and am available to work anywhere within the UK.
My Enhanced DBS certificate (number 001835329183) is available for review.
References are available upon request.
I look forward to the opportunity to contribute my expertise, skills, and passion for care to those in need.
