IV30 1BJ 270615 My name is Paola. I am South African, born to Italian parents but have immigrated to Ireland in January 2022 and working in the UK as a live-in carer for the past four years. I speak English as a first language but am fluent in Italian and Afrikaans. I am kind and calm with a pleasant demeanour. I am tolerant and patient. I have a good sense of humour. I get along with all people. I have tons of empathy and compassion. I love taking care of people when they are unable to do so for themselves. I love to ensure that they are happy, comfortable and as pain-free as possible. I have many skills in the caring sector as I have taken care of a variety of different needs for example: quadriplegics mainly due to neurological diseases such as MS, MND and MSA. I have done lots of hoisting with different hoist types. I have experience in catheter care, stoma care. I have taken care of many aged clients with varying needs. I cook, clean, do laundry, administer medication, transport to appointments etc, keep them stimulated. I also have a lot of experience with dementia and Alzheimer's care. 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"3","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"3","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"3"}

I have 20+ years experience working in the care industry and have developed a compassionate approach. I work hard to get to know my clients, so I can help them enjoy their interests and hobbies I am experienced in Dementia care,moving and handling and the use of most equipment, hoists, slings, pulleys,sara stedies and slide sheets,personal grooming/care and I enjoy helping clients look their best. I can assist with hygiene, toileting, eating, cooking, cleaning and any administrative tasks which need support.I am also proficient at Medication Administration and Ordering of Medications and Mar Sheets I love looking after other people and was given the chance to become a carer through the Highland Council, I found that it was something I really enjoyed, especially meeting and interacting with new people I love reading, especially spy fiction novels. I also love knitting and crocheting, my Mum taught me these at a very early age, she was a marvel at both. I used to own 2 collies but lost them due to old age and I still miss them terribly, loved our walks together Please get in touch if you think I could help you and I’ll reply as soon as I can.

IV2 6GS 289085 Hi my name is Lovielinda short for Love, I have three years of experience working in a semi-private care home, where I provided compassionate and dedicated care to residents. I have completed my SVQ2 in Social Services in Healthcare, I have both PVG for adults and Young Children and happy to show you upon request. Prior to this, I studied Elementary Education for two and a half years in the Philippines, a country renowned for its politeness and exceptional caregiving, particularly for individuals of all ages. I am committed to learning more about my future clients to better specialize in their unique needs. Currently, I am seeking a part-time position as a childcare practitioner in a school setting, which has given me valuable insights into working with young people as well including those with special needs. My goal is to provide the highest level of care and support. I am willing to learn news skills if required. I am a very family and positive person, very easy to be comfortable with. I love cooking our Filipino traditional food, decorating room and doing some crafting is something I am passionate at the moment. If you would like to know more about me don’t hesitate to ask me questions. Thank you 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"1","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"1","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"1","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":false,"field_care_type_sixth":"","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":false,"field_care_type_seven":""}
