Kind, hardworking and Compassionate Carer, that is a strong believer in personal care.
| I am currently a care assistant at a nursing home, but feel like I can't provide the personal care I would like too. Due to the volume of patients I have. I am extremely outgoing and Social, as well as compassionate. I am a firm believer in personal care as everybody is an individual and should be treated as such. I'm currently studying for my HNC in Care (equivalent to SVQ3) and hope to eventually go onto do nursing. I enjoy baking and art due to how therapeutic it can be and take the up most care when it comes to potential health and safely risks. I have had manual handling training, dementia training and can do personal care, domestic duties and assist feeding. I will be having my first aid training, as well as more manual handling training in the next 2months. So if your looking a break I'm just the person for you and your relative.

Final year experienced nursing student who is kind and compassionate
| I am entering my final year of nursing studies at Glasgow university. My degree has equipped me with practical clinical skills, excellent communication skills and a wide knowledge about health and well-being. During my 3 years of training so far I have experienced a wide variety of different caring environments including acute hospital care settings and primary care in the community. I have experience nursing the elderly, disabled and young otherwise healthy adults in points of crisis. I have experience nursing many long term conditions including dementia, MS, cancer, asthma and stroke. My degree level education has also given me a thorough knowledge base on human disease and pathology, pharmacology and nursing theory in practice. Going beyond my education, I believe I am a very approachable, personable, empathetic and compassionate person. I enjoy being around people and nursing is not only my skill but something I love to do. I live locally in the west end of Glasgow and have easy access to public transport.

| I am patient, caring and generous of spirit. I love a good laugh and like to make a difference. I helped nurse different family members through a long and painful journey with Alzheimers to keep healthy and comfortable. I learned a lot about death, grief and how to support those close through that process. During Covid lockdown in Nigeria, I took up a companion contract with an old lady, suffering with depression after the death of her husband. l integrated well with her family and eased their concern with regular communication. This experience progressed to my relocating to the UK in 2020. Since then, I have supported a diverse and interesting mix of clients and their families across Scotland and England and embrace the unique backgrounds and upbringing of each family. I have worked with people with dementia, diabetes, depression, with various levels of mobility. Personal care and grooming with songs sung together brings on a smile or shared dance. Caring is an extremely fulfilling vocation.
