Description
As part of work experience at a pharmacy, I gained valuable experience in customer service, including telephone calls, dealing with customers face to face, assisting in arranging and dispensing medication. Working closely with the Pharmacist I wrote prescriptions, labelled medication, updated computer systems and dispensed medication to patients. Working as a team to supply an efficient and effective service our customers' needs were met. I work alongside my parents for as a Foster Care Assistant (FCA). My duties include taking Looked After Children (LAC) to shopping, activities, and trips. I help children with personal care and assist them with their education. I thoroughly enjoy interaction with these children who have various levels of needs including autism, ADHD, mental and physical disabilities. I am currently employed as a Community Support Worker (CSW). These children have high-level needs. The current child I am working with has a high level of ADHD and Autism. My duties include working closely with parents, school and the agency to ensure safety of the child within the community and arrange activities that she enjoys. A further role I undertook with an agency is a Care Worker. My client, a female aged 12, is bedbound and blind. I undertook personal care along with complex care which includes washing, changing pads, feeding, and brushing her teeth due to her being incontinent. Having worked with this young lady has given me inspiration and determination to work in this sector. My duties in my work include medication, feeding, personal care, taking them out if possible and any other health needs. I have been looking after people with chronic or long-term health problems who require extra aid to manage their symptoms and complete day to day activities. I have over 20 trainings which include first aid, medications, infection and response and many more.
