Description
Hello, I am Joanne K, a compassionate and experienced home carer with a passion for supporting individuals in leading independent lives. With a wealth of experience in caring for individuals with various needs, including Mild Cognitive Impairment, Anxiety, and Depression, I am dedicated to providing exceptional care and companionship. My expertise lies in assisting with activities of daily living such as bathing, toileting, dressing, and catheter care, ensuring the comfort and well-being of those under my care.
As a female carer with the ability to provide both hourly and overnight care, I understand the importance of flexibility and patience in meeting the unique needs of each individual. While I have a car, my driving capabilities allow me to travel to and from clients' homes with ease, ensuring that I can reach those in need of my services promptly. In my spare time, I enjoy activities such as walking, yoga, and socializing, which allow me to maintain a healthy work-life balance and recharge my energy to provide the best possible care to those I support.
With a caring, friendly, and helpful nature, I strive to create a warm and supportive environment for my clients, fostering a sense of trust and security. My motivation for pursuing a career in care stems from my desire to make a positive difference in the lives of others and empower them to live life to the fullest. If you are seeking a dedicated and skilled carer who values empathy and professionalism, I am here to offer my services and support on your caregiving journey.

Thank you for your recent enquiry in relation to the above named person. It is our policy to confine such references to the confirmation of factual data. I am therefore pleased to confirm the following. Joanne was employed as a Support Worker for adults with Learning Disabilities. She joined us on 8th February 2021 and her employment ended on 1st June 2023. Joanne’s reason for leaving was resignation. Joanne’s responsibilities as a Support Worker were to promote service users’ independence in everyday activities by providing physical, practical and emotional support. I can confirm that Innovate Trust would re-employ Joanne, subject to the satisfactory completion of the organisations’ recruitment and selection procedures and our pre-employment checks. Joanne has at no point been the subject of disciplinary action.
