Description

As a home carer, I am very committed to providing my clients with the best care I can give.
I love to make people laugh and have a knack for putting my clients at ease. I always practice compassion and understanding as I know how important this is to the well-being of my clients.
As a good carer, I am very passionate about my job and very much involved in my clients' everyday needs.
I give empathy, and I am very patient with my clients.
I am reliable and give respect to that of my clients and their own choices and that of their families.
I am very observant with excellent communication skills.
I love making a difference in other people's lives, and helping them brings me so much joy and helping to keep the elderly at home living independently makes me feel like I have accomplished something.

I have only recently worked alongside Melanie when she worked for a care company that cares for friends of mine where I help out 2-3 times a week. Mel very quickly understood the dynamics of the household and worked well with the lady who has dementia & her husband who supports her. She was always prompt, polite & cheerful. She was quickly observant of any medical problem’s & changes needed in care & formed a good relationship with all of us. Any person needing support in the future will be lucky to have her on their team. Regards Jane Spedding. RMN RGN RM
