Compassionate, patient, and reliable Care Assistant with experience supporting elderly and vulnerable individuals in both homecare and community settings. Bringing a strong background in education, childcare, and voluntary work, combined with excellent organisational skills and a calm, supportive approach. Skilled in assisting with personal care, daily living tasks, emotional support, and maintaining safety and wellbeing.
Since September 2025 I have been taking care of a 96 year old woman, during the day and often at night.
I take care of everything that involves caring for her moment by moment. My daily responsibilities encompass a comprehensive range of care, including morning routines such as personal hygiene and dressing. I prepare and serve breakfast, providing assistance as needed. I also set the table, administer massages, and facilitate cognitive and routine activities. I encourage independent action, offering support and intervention when necessary. Medication management is also a key duty, ensuring timely administration.
Furthermore, I conduct full-body massages and mobility exercises, and accompany individuals on outdoor excursions or shopping trips. I prioritize fostering meaningful connections, encouraging socialization and storytelling. I assist with evening routines, including changing and bathing, and provide overnight care when required. I also facilitate medical appointments, accompanying individuals to the doctor or coordinating with paramedics for home visits. My commitment is to their holistic well-being, encompassing both physical and mental care. I have a particular affinity for the elderly and children, and I meticulously report daily and nightly occurrences.
