BS41 9HU 250344 My name is Charmaine. I am a 33-year-old Nursing Assistant at Southmead Hospital, Bristol, with the NHS. I have been in this position for 4 years, and I have worked all across the hospital in various wards, such as complex care (including dementia, risk of falls, frailty, and end-of-life care), trauma and orthopaedics, neurology, stroke, medical, surgical, burns, ICU, and more. I have uploaded the list of NHS training I have undertaken, and I also have a recent DBS and First Aid training. Before my current role, I worked as a Key Support Worker for children and young adults with autism and learning disabilities. I have undertaken Autism training and learning disability awareness. I know basic Makaton, and have completed adult and children safeguarding. I have worked with young people with epilepsy. Prior to this, I was an English teacher is several countries such as Nepal, Thailand, Bosnia, and Poland. I worked as a teaching assistant in a Montessori School in Madrid, Spain, and an Art teacher in India. I spent one year working as an Aupair in Australia, and have spent many years travelling the world gaining general life experience and learning about other cultures. I have volunteered in 32 countries and plan to visit more countries in the future. I am happy being around pets and helping provide care for them. I have a driver's license and car and can help with trips and shopping. I like initiating creativity through painting, drawing, and creating and enjoy playing games, such as chess. I encourage outdoor time, taking walks, going to the park, and being in nature. I believe that providing companionship and a listening ear is a great contribution to good health and happiness. I pride myself on patient-centred support, always putting the patient's needs, wants, and desires first, tailoring their care to meet them, and promoting as much independence as possible. 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":false,"field_care_type_second":"","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":false,"field_care_type_fourth":"","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"1"}

BS2 0GG 282925 My name is Angelica, and I am a dedicated and compassionate senior carer with a university degree from the UK. I am fluent in English, Spanish, and Mandarin, which enables me to connect with a diverse range of individuals. With over four years of professional experience and more than seven years of volunteering in the care sector across Venezuela, the US, and the UK, I have honed my skills and deepened my commitment to providing exemplary care. My experience spans a wide array of conditions, including various stages of dementia, diabetes, autism, asthma, incontinence, and rehabilitation among many other disabilities. This extensive background has equipped me with the expertise to handle complex care needs with professionalism and empathy. However, what truly distinguishes my care is the love and dedication I bring to my role. For me, caregiving is not merely a job; it is a calling to ensure our loved ones receive the care they deserve and can enjoy the bright side of life. I am used to prompting medications, coordinating doctor's appointments, handling administrative tasks, and organising the rota to ensure seamless coverage by different caregivers. My organisational skills and attention to detail ensure that every aspect of care is meticulously planned and executed, providing peace of mind to families and optimal outcomes for those in my care. My aim is to deliver the highest standard of care, tailored to meet the unique needs of each individual. I am committed to enhancing the quality of life for those I care for, fostering a supportive and nurturing environment where they can thrive. 1 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":"0","field_care_type_first":"0","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":"0","field_care_type_second":"0","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":"0","field_care_type_third":"0","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":"0","field_care_type_fourth":"0","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":"0","field_care_type_fifth":"0","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":"0","field_care_type_sixth":"0","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":"0","field_care_type_seven":"0"}

BS7 8EL 168338 With a background in art, I turned to care work shortly after the birth of my son ten years ago and haven’t looked back. It was the best career choice I ever made! I started out doing voluntary work with the elderly and young people, and soon acquired my first paid job in an education provision mentoring children and young adults with emotional and behavioral difficulties (6-18 yrs). From there I moved into residential work in a school working 1:1 with young adults with very complex needs and challenging behaviours. Then I made the move into adult services (working with all ages from 18 – 80+). The adults I have supported during my time as a professional support worker have included a range of needs, including learning disabilities, physical disabilities (inc. severe cerebral palsy), brain injury, dementia, autism, mental health etc (I also have intimate experience of dementia as I lost my mother to the disease). However, the majority have been able to live independently. and my role has been to support them both in the home and out in the community. This has included personal care, dressing, medication, help with cleaning and cooking, finances, admin, as well as facilitating engagement in a whole range of social and leisure activities in the wider community. I find the role incredibly rewarding and love the variety and challenges each day brings. My main motivation is to make a difference and have a positive impact, which means I work hard to enable and promote independence, and aim to facilitate opportunity and a sense of fulfilment whenever and wherever I can. My approach is very person-centred which means I always put the needs and wants of the person I am working with first. I listen and am attentive and always respond with empathy and patience. Cheerful by nature and with a positive outlook, I bring a friendly, calm and caring attitude to all my clients. Always willing to help, I am hard working, committed and take pride in what I do. I am reliable and punctual and have found a good sense of humour to be a real asset in many, if not most, situations. I have 3 clients at the moment so I don't have much time currently available. However, I will help if I can, so do please get in touch!
