Description
My name is Tina, I have over 30 years experience and I am a female home carer with extensive experience in providing quality care to individuals with various health conditions. With a caring and friendly approach, I have the skills to assist those with Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound patients, as well as individuals dealing with anxiety, depression, and dementia as well as palliative and end of life care. I have many transferable skills.
One of my key strengths is my ability to provide assistance with daily activities such as bathing, toileting, dressing, and catheter care. Beyond just physical care, I understand the importance of companionship and strive to forge meaningful connections with my clients.
I have a valid driver's license and am more than willing to use public transportation or arrange for alternative transport options. In my free time, I enjoy walking, dancing, card games, cooking and baking, and solving puzzles.
As a pet lover, I am comfortable providing care in a home with cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, or birds. I am driven by the desire to help people lead independent lives and provide the necessary support to enhance their quality of life. With my years of experience in the field and my caring nature, I am confident in my ability to make a positive difference in the lives of those I care for.
