Description
My name is Brigitte Glenister, and I am an experienced home carer with a passion for helping others. As a female carer, I have had the privilege of working with clients who require hourly and overnight care.
Throughout my years as a carer, I have gained valuable experience in supporting clients with a variety of conditions such as Mild Cognitive Impairment, being bedbound, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression. I have developed a deep understanding and empathy for their unique needs and challenges.
I take pride in my ability to provide essential care services including bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and companionship. Furthermore, I am also a skilled driver with my own car, which enables me to assist clients in their transportation needs.
Outside of my caregiving duties, I enjoy pursuing various hobbies such as walking, playing card games, cooking and baking, engaging in puzzles, and socializing with others. My love for pets has no bounds, with a preference for cats, dogs, fish, birds, and even lizards.
My caring, friendly, and helpful attributes enable me to connect with clients on a personal level and provide the support they need in their everyday lives. I am motivated by the desire to help others lead independent and fulfilling lives, ensuring that their needs are met with compassion and dignity.
If you are looking for a dedicated and compassionate carer who will go above and beyond to support your loved one, I would be honored to be considered for the role.
