Description
Hello there. I’m Louise Hall and I have lived in Suffolk all my life. I am currently based in Bungay where I have been for the past 3 years. I live with my grown up daughter and a dog and two cats. I have been a support worker/carer for the last 15 years and have experience of COPD, Parkinson’s, Dementia, Special Needs and general elderly care. I have experience of oxygen therapy, peg feeding with medication through peg also, catheter care and bowel management. Along with general care, wound management and all personal care. I am a keen cook and very aware of dietary needs for differing conditions.
I love to help people and to make life a little easier and to have good conversations and a little fun. I enjoy outdoors and many indoor pursuits too.
I am very gentle and kind with a compassionate disposition but also happy and fun to be around. I am aware of the need for professionalism and confidentiality at all times.
I would love to be able to make a difference to you and your loved ones around you. Care of the whole family is important to me.
