Description
I am an adaptable and enthusiastic support worker who is well experienced in providing care for individuals with learning and physical disabilities as well as those with mental health needs. I have a proven ability to deal with physical and emotional needs, providing guidance, re-assurance, and support to service users. I currently work with autistic adults living on their own where I have aided them in daily community activities and social engagements. In addition to this, I have a great understanding and respect of different cultures, religious beliefs, and values as I believe it creates a harmonious and supportive environment.
