Description
Hello, I'm Riffat Khatoon a home carer with a passion for supporting individuals in living independently and with dignity. With experience in caring for those with mild cognitive impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and those who are bedbound, I bring a wealth of knowledge and empathy to every client interaction. My care types include hourly and overnight assistance, and I am equipped to provide a range of services from bathing and toileting to catheter care and companionship.
One of my key strengths lies in my ability to drive, along with having my own car, allowing me to efficiently attend to my clients' needs and provide timely support. My skills extend beyond the basic requirements of caregiving to include activities such as assisting with dressing and engaging in stimulating hobbies like walking, card games, cooking & baking, decorating, and gardening. I have a soft spot for pets, particularly cats, fish, rabbits, birds, and turtles, and I believe that they can contribute significantly to a person's overall well-being.
I approach my role as a home carer with a deep sense of care, friendliness, and helpfulness, striving to create a warm and comfortable environment for those under my care. My motivation stems from a genuine desire to make a positive impact on people's lives by enabling them to lead fulfilling and independent lifestyles. If you are seeking a dedicated and skilled carer who values compassion and companionship, I would be honored to support you or your loved ones on their caregiving journey.
