Summary

Leveraging over 10 years of diverse experience and career achievements in sales & marketing, along with my qualifications as a Caregiver (NVQ3) I am an experienced Medical Care Assistant with NVQ level 3 training at a leading General Hospital and a volunteer palliative care worker. Also years of experience supporting people with various needs through charity work. My passion and desire is to invest my time, energy, love, and care for people who are in need of it. My desire is to continue understanding the mindset of the elderly, terminally ill or differently able people by sharing love, compassion, and empathy, giving them hope and offering care assistance in their daily activities. I have demonstrated my ability to provide compassionate care to patients in various healthcare settings. I am skilled in assisting with activities of daily living, taking vital signs, and administering medications. With my strong communication skills and my ability to work well in a team, I am confident that I would make a valuable addition to any healthcare team
