Profile
I am a Self motivated,compassionate, emphathetic, caring individual. I have worked in the health and Social Care industry as a Health Care Assistant/ Support Worker for the last five years dealing with a range of service users, from children to adults.My experience emanates from dealing with cases ranging from chronic ailments such as Parkinson's, Hantington, cancer,Stroke, Autism,HIV and learning disabilities. I love assisting service users to live a healthy fulfilled and independent life and contributing to their day to day needs, assisting where they are unable to take care of themselves.
