Live in carer - Good.png
 

Bordon, GU35

Good enjoys cooking meals, baking, doing puzzles and games, listening to music, book reading, leisure walks and gardening.

Good has completed a days’ training course and the care certificate. Good has so much enthusiasm, he brings a smile to people’s faces. The care and attention he brings makes people love him.

What Good Says:

As a Live-In Carer, there is always a great deal of opportunity for me to develop and improve the service I provide as I continue to discover new aspects of my client's personality and preferences.

I always look to build a bond which is valued by both me and the person I deliver care to.

I am a problem solver and I have a good sense of humour. I know how to put a positive spin on things. Whereas many people concentrate on the problems at hand, I always look towards coming up with solutions

Being able to give my clients the support they need to live day-to-day allows me to see the results of my hard work. Sometimes I will be confronted with the harsh realities of people struggling to overcome illness or disability. This allows me to appreciate the little things in life we all take for granted.

Live in carer

Tell us about you!

My hobbies are mostly evolved around my beautiful sprocker spaniel boy. I spend my current spare time spending it with my dog, training him and looking into different avenues in my spare time to train him to be a medical intervention dog.

In the past volunteered abroad supporting animals and people. For example, I travelled to north Africa to support a community near the summit of mountain Toubkal. To provide support on how they can improve their living conditions and set up safe systems of work to earn a living.

I also have also travelled the east coast of Australia. I have an interest in continuous professional development completing distance learning courses such as; L3 animal welfare, dog training, and awareness of animals in violent homes. 

With my counselling and psychotherapy background, I have the emotional intelligence and passion to build strong relationships and to support people to ensure they have a positive and life changing experience. 

I grew up with a military background moving every 6 months to a year during my childhood so change doesn’t phase me and I would settle with ease very quickly with a can do, grateful attitude.

I have developed strengths that make me independent, thoughtful and appreciative of human connections, and the impact being kind to one another makes.

I enjoy listening to motivational speakers, mentors and influencers. I enjoy being outdoors, doing meditation, and I try my best to practice mindfulness.

I have a great knowledge base with experience in a variety of settings. I worked my way up the industry as a care assistant, mental health worker, to nursing assistant, health care trainer, care assessor, rehabilitation team leader, to assistant complex care manager.

I left my assistant manager role just under a year ago now, to commit to caring for a loved one, since then, my circumstances have changed and am no longer required to commit to this.

I have a passion and a caring attitude required for this role. I have a loving nature, passion, a caring attitude the experience behind me.

I have many different experiences such as being involved in babies’/toddlers’ emergency tracheostomy tube changes to provide ventilation and oxygen, to supporting a client through a complex rehab program after acquiring a brain injury and challenging behaviour, to providing and developing relevant companionship programs and healthy stimulation activities for different types of dementia patients.

I am also a qualified first aid instructor, with awareness of mental health first aid, mental health resilience and awareness of self-harm.

I have a good record of working well independently and manage my time on duty effectively. I am trustworthy and reliable and confident and I have obtained the level 3 health and social care qualification, level 4 counselling and psychotherapy and level 3 PTTLS teaching adults qualifications

I have experience with the re-ablement, I’m very approachable and flexible and am able to appreciate other people's perception and feelings towards things and I’m non-judgemental.

Any other information?

I am ideally looking for a role where the client wouldn't mind me moving in with the intention to be the full time live in carer. I was hoping to be matched with a client that likes dogs, and wouldn't mind dog living in the separate living space whilst I am on duty. My dog is very calm, and doesn't bark. I am willing to do a trial first.

Availability: I am looking to be the sole care worker working full time.

Lynne - private home care in Lancaster.png

Keighley

Tell us about you! I have 4 cats and a collie. I enjoy animals, walking and going to the lakes. I like to swim when I get the chance, love movies but I don’t watch normal TV, only box sets of series. 

I have worked in care now for 28 years. I've worked in some great homes and worked with some brilliant people. I have learnt a lot from every single new resident / client I have cared for. No two people are the same. For me it’s always been the needs of my clients that is important. 

I now work primarily as a live-in pa/carer. I cover respite mainly. I enjoy this as I get to see all different types of people who have different needs. It is all about learning something new from each client, their condition or just personality. I have found over the years people do not like change but are open to new ideas, but not when the ideas are forced upon them. What could be good for one person may not suit another and I have learnt this by listening to what people want/need, and not what other people think they want or need. 

There are some areas I have worked more than others, personal care and palliative/end of life care are where I have worked the most. I have worked with dementia and EMI. I have worked as a live-in carer for people in their own homes, I enjoyed this working in different homes every week travelling all over the country. seeing how other counties care.
