KenyaWhat I'm looking for
I am a compassionate and dedicated caregiver with four years of experience providing exceptional care to elderly individuals, disabled persons, and patients with special needs. My skills include personal care assistance, medication management, and ensuring a safe and comfortable environment for my clients. I am passionate about enhancing the quality of life for those I care for through patience, empathy, and professionalism.
In my previous role as a caregiver, I assisted clients with daily living activities, including bathing, dressing, and meal preparations. I provided companionship and emotional support while engaging clients in recreational activities. Monitoring vital signs and reporting any health concerns to medical professionals were also part of my responsibilities. My education in caregiving, combined with my high school experience in sports and drama, has equipped me with valuable leadership and interpersonal skills essential for effective caregiving.
