Description
My name is Lorraine M and I am a dedicated and experienced home carer. As a female carer, I have spent several years providing personalized care for individuals with a variety of needs. I specialize in providing hourly care and have gained enriching experiences working with clients with Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and those who are bedbound.
Although I do not possess a driver's license or own a car, please rest assured that I am fully committed to delivering top-quality care. My skills range from assisting with daily tasks such as bathing, toileting, dressing, and catheter care to providing companionship and emotional support. I strongly believe in maintaining a strong rapport with my clients and valuing their independence above all else.
Outside of work, I enjoy walking, cooking and baking, socializing, reading, and watching television. These hobbies allow me to maintain a balanced and fulfilling life, ensuring that I can bring a positive energy to the care I provide. Additionally, I am a lover of all animals, particularly cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds.
My caring nature, friendly demeanor, and helpful attitude have always been integral to my approach. I find immense satisfaction in assisting people and enabling them to lead more independent lives, despite their challenges. If you're seeking a reliable and compassionate carer, I am confident that I am the right person for the job.
