▶ Watch Intro

"With over 18 years of experience in elderly care, I bring a wealth of practical skills, including personal care, washing and dressing, incontinence care, meal preparation, feeding, medication administration and prompting, shopping, maintaining a clean and tidy environment, and effective communication. My biggest career achievement is pioneering a wellbeing programme that significantly uplifted clients' emotional health unconditionally. My commitment is to bring positive outcomes to clients and align with the high standards of care services to ensure that I meet their needs. I am a flexible and dedicated carer, with good communication skills, a good listener, and a quick learner, as I continually learn from different clients. I support clients to live independently as much as possible by aiding them in their daily routines. I treat every client as an individual by respecting their choices, values, and privacy. My first approach is to read and understand each client's care plan to ensure that I comprehend their needs. Thank you."

"Hi, my name is Kai, short for my first name, also known as Oscar—"nicknamed after the great Oscar Wilde by my grandad." I have worked in administration and as a community health worker back home before entering care work, as I am loving, caring, and passionate about helping the vulnerable in society live a fulfilling life, just like everyone else. I have completed all the necessary training and refresher courses, including statutory and mandatory certification, medication administration, manual handling, and dementia care. I have worked in the health and social care industry for over two years in a variety of care settings, with clients who have dementia, Parkinson’s, Alzheimer’s, and those who have had strokes, among others. I have gained a vast amount of knowledge, skills, and experience over the years, which have equipped me to handle difficult situations with calm and patience. I am open to learning new skills and have acquired extensive knowledge in adhering to individual care plans and upholding individuals' preferences, tastes, and needs. Most significantly, I aim to be patient while providing my assistance, treating clients with dignity and respect. I enjoy gardening, reading exclusively novels, solving puzzles, and playing jigsaw games. I am looking for regular live-in work and am happy to cover sleep-in nights on my days off. I am an average cook and can carry out all personal care needs and household duties, including laundry, cleaning, and gardening, keeping the house free from hazardous objects. I am also willing to assist with clients' pets and provide social interaction, or "companionship," by accompanying clients on coffee outings. As a driver and vehicle owner, I am willing to transport clients to appointments, provided that the client has insured me to drive their vehicle with business insurance, or can cover business insurance on my vehicle. I am happy to cover areas across the UK or in Manchester, where I have family. Transport charges will need to be covered by clients."
