Description
My name is Sandra N and I am a female carer with a wealth of experience in providing compassionate and professional care. I have worked in various care settings, including live-in, hourly, and overnight care. I am well-versed in caring for individuals who have Mild Cognitive Impairment, are bedbound, have Parkinson's Disease, experience anxiety, and depression.
One of the things that sets me apart as a carer is my ability to drive and my ownership of a car. This allows me to provide transportation and support for my clients, ensuring they have access to necessary appointments and outings. In terms of my skills, I am proficient in bathing, toileting, assisting with dressing, catheter care, and providing companionship.
Outside of my caregiving role, I enjoy engaging in various hobbies. I love taking leisurely walks, dancing, socializing with friends and family, reading books, and listening to music. As for preferences, I have a fondness for fish and find their presence to be calming.
I have been told that my caring nature shines through in my interactions with clients. I am friendly, helpful, and genuinely invested in making their lives as comfortable and independent as possible. This is my motivation for being a carer, guiding me to provide the highest quality of care to those who need it most.
