Description
I have been a carer for 6 years, and I love it. I have an NVQ 2 in Health and Social Carer and a Level 5 in Health and Social Carer Management. I have cared for a wide variety of patients, from Dementia to MS, managing behaviour, diet and a range of complex medical conditions along the way.
I love my vocation, as it allows me to make others happy, fulfilled and able to live as full a life as possible. I enjoy hearing and sharing stories and generally getting to know people.
I love to cook, I actually enjoy cleaning, and most of all I love to socialise (safely, as my role currently puts strict conditions on that side of life).
I hope to heal from you soon.
