Description
Hi, my name is Joy Denise B, and I am a passionate and an experienced home carer. I have been in the caregiving industry for several years now, providing exceptional care for individuals with various needs. My expertise lies in caring for individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment, Parkinson's Disease, anxiety, depression, and those who are bedbound.
I specialise in hourly and overnight care, ensuring that my clients receive the attention and support they need throughout the day and night. My skills include assisting with bathing, toileting, dressing, catheter care, and providing companionship. I deeply understand the importance of maintaining a sense of dignity and independence for my clients, and I strive to cultivate a warm and compassionate environment.
Despite me not being able to drive or having a car, it does not limit my ability to provide excellent care. I believe in the power of human connection and aim to create meaningful relationships with my clients. In my free time, I enjoy various hobbies such as walking, cooking & baking, socialising, playing board games, and reading. I also have a love for animals and am comfortable caring for cats, dogs, and fish.
Being a caregiver is not just a job for me; it is a calling. I find great satisfaction in helping individuals lead independent lives and providing them with the support they need to thrive. With my caring nature, friendly demeanor, and helpful attitude, I am confident that I can make a positive impact in the lives of those I care for.
