Description
Hello
My name is Vedrana and I’m originally Croatian with UK address last 3 years
Since I came in UK I’m working as personal care assistant and I’m doing my job with pleasure. I have invested my time in training and education and I would say I’m very comfortable and competent in what I do.
I specialise in working with spinal cord injuries,mental health and rehabilitation. Just done with studying mental health/psychology/addiction.
In 2014 I had car accident and I would say that I’ve went through lots of similar things, my path of healing wasn’t so easy but I make it work with support of amazing professionals so that’s why I’m happy to work with people with that kind of difficulties since I can understand. I work with adults and young people.
Using British sign language as well. And I’m as well studying on private college BSL 1 - 6 levels and interpreting. My both parents are deaf and I have used sign language all my life. I found it very comfortable to work with people who have that kind of disability as well since I have very personal connection to that kind of living.
I love life and all about it. I’m very artistic person, straightforward and looking forward to meet some interesting people.
Have a lovely day 🙂
