Description
My name is Kusum S and I am a female home carer with a passion for helping others. With a wealth of experience in caring for individuals with various conditions, including Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound patients, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression, I am well-equipped to provide the necessary support and care.
I do have a car, I am able to drive, ensuring that transportation is never an issue. I am skilled in a range of care types, including bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and providing companionship. These skills allow me to not only attend to the physical needs of those I care for but also create meaningful and supportive relationships.
Outside of my work as a carer, I enjoy walking, cooking and baking, puzzles, yoga, and socializing. These hobbies not only bring me personal joy but also help me to stay active and maintain a positive mindset. I also have a love for animals and have no preference when it comes to pets - I am equally comfortable with cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds.
What sets me apart as a carer is my caring nature, friendly demeanor, and a genuine desire to help others lead independent lives. I am motivated by the knowledge that I can make a difference in someone's life, no matter how big or small. If you are looking for a dedicated and skilled carer who will go the extra mile to ensure your loved one's well-being, I am the perfect fit.
