Description
My name is Sarah T and I am a compassionate and experienced home carer. As a female carer with a wealth of experience, I have provided care in various settings and for clients with diverse needs. I offer live-in, hourly, and overnight care for individuals requiring assistance with activities of daily living.
Throughout my career, I have worked with clients who have faced a range of challenges, including mild cognitive impairment, bedbound patients, Parkinson's Disease, and individuals dealing with anxiety and depression. I bring a high level of empathy and understanding when providing support and am dedicated to improving the quality of life for those under my care.
I possess the necessary skills to efficiently and respectfully address personal care needs, such as bathing, toileting, dressing, and catheter care. Additionally, I prioritize companionship, understanding the importance of human connection and the positive impact it can have on overall well-being.
Outside of my care work, I enjoy various hobbies including walking, dancing, card games, cooking and baking, and puzzles. I consider myself a caring, friendly, and helpful individual who believes in empowering others to lead independent lives. Moreover, I appreciate the company of dogs, fish, and rabbits, adding an extra layer of companionship to my caring services.
In summary, I am an experienced and dedicated carer who takes great pride in supporting individuals with various needs. With my driving license and a reliable car, I am also able to provide transportation assistance when necessary. I strive to make a positive difference in the lives of those I care for, allowing them to maintain their dignity while receiving the compassionate support they deserve.
