Description
My name is Adenike but can be called Nikky, I am compassionate about my job of looking after clients in their own homes and about the community.
I have good communication skills and understand the basic needs of my clients.
I as a carer have enjoyed helping with the smooth running of the client's household and to meet any specific needs the client may have.
This starts with any help with the personal care you require. For example, you may need help to get washed or dressed, even if it's as simple as someone doing up the buttons or zips.
Personal assistance may extend to grooming, such as help with brushing your hair or applying makeup.
Part of my roles and responsibilities are also to arrange and attend visits to the doctor or dentist and any hospital appointments you may have.
Alternatively, you may want support to continue attending social events you enjoy or to undertake a day trip. The benefit of a carer is the flexibility I can provide, the help I offer can be perfectly tailored to your needs.
