 TR7 3HJ 240612 Hello! My name is Melissa but you can call me Mel. I am a Mother of 2 daughters aged 15 and 12. I have 9 years experience in care in different aspect’s and working with a wide variety of needs. I started my career in care in a small, personal residential home and worked my way up to help to ensure the smooth running of the home by working closely with the homes Directors, Manager and Healthcare professionals such as Doctors, District Nurses, Community Psychiatrist Nurses, Occupational Therapists and Physiotherapists and most importantly our lovely residents and their family! I now work out in the community caring and I have done this for the past 5 years and I really enjoy it. I work for a homecare company and I also care privately. I have built such lovely relationships with all those I care for and with their families too! I have experience, but not restricted too, working with the elderly, dementia, mobility difficulties, mental health, challenging behaviour and learning difficulties. I have a diploma in Health and Social Care and The Care Certificate. I am experienced and keep up to date with all relevant training such as Moving and Handling, Trips and Falls, Safeguarding, Food Safety, Medication, Dementia, End of Life, Pressure Care, Fire Safety and more. I am a friendly, reliable, trustworthy, compassionate and caring person by nature. I like to build a good rapport with those I care for and their family. I understand how difficult some situations can be and I may be able to offer you some support by caring for yourself or your loved one to enable you to continue with day to day tasks, work commitments or needing a load taken off - I understand this. I am passionate about delivering high standards of care and I have a good understanding of individuality - not ‘one size fits all!’ I treat those I care for with upmost respect, dignity and confidentiality. I love to help others and to put a smile on faces where I can, I find this really rewarding and it gives me a good sense of achievement. I love doing what I do and visiting my lovely customers, it doesn’t feel like ‘work’ Fully Insured Employer and customer references available on request.

 TQ13 7DT 131980 Hello, I'm 46 and a keen motorcyclist. Originally from South Africa, I've lived in Devon for almost 26 years now. I've worked in various trades, picked up many skills and dealt with many different scenarios. I spent a decade in Hospitality, from waitress to barmaid, receptionist through to managing restaurants, kitchen manager and head chef, ran a bed n breakfast, ran pubs, clubs and outdoor events. I've been a security guard, fire marshall and even a bouncer. I've worked as a hospital bedwatch officer for 2 years with patients needing 24 hour supervision who were at risk of harming themselves or others, due to psychosis, drug and alcohol detox, awaking from a coma, dementia, learning or  developmental difficulties, self harming, suicide attempts, eating disorders or other mental health issues. I've also learnt about a myriad of complimentary therapies managing a holistic health clinic for 3 years. In the summer months, I often still work as Night Manager for Welfare at numerous festivals working alongside medics and security to help distressed folks needing care, support and advice, whether that's from dehydration and heat exhaustion, drugs or alcohol misuse, domestic violence, sexual assault or having a mental health crisis. We're  also responsible for safeguarding vulnerable adults and children. As I usually work 2 weeks on, 2 weeks off, I try to coincide my festival work on the weeks I'm not doing care. I will consider doing 3 weeks on, 1 week off if needs be. In the past I have been a Private Carer for a lady for the last three years of her life with complex needs due to her Ehlers Danlos (hypermobility type), leading to frequent dislocations and subluxations of her joints, gastroparesis and epilepsy. She was fed through total parental nutrition directly through her vena cava into her heart and so I was responsible for administering medication through her PEG, domiciliary help and personal care 3 to 4 days a week to give her children and carer some respite. I've also given 6 months full time palliative care to a gentleman with COPD and stage 4 lung cancer, taking care of all his private administration, organising his medication schedules, nutrition and hydration, assisted with personal care and accompanied him to his chemotherapy treatments and hospital appointments. Recently, I've worked in Home Care for 2 years, visiting clients in their own homes helping around the house, prompting or administering medication, giving personal care, supporting with mobility, moving and handling, stoma and catheter care, assisting with washing and dressing, companionship, cooking meals, doing gardening and getting shopping in. I've been doing Live-in Care for about a year or so, doing much the same. My colleagues and clients describe me as trustworthy, patient, understanding, compassionate, friendly, resourceful and organised. My friends would describe me as honest, reliable, creative, sociable and funny. I love riding my motorcycle, enjoy various boardgames, watching films and make leathercrafts to sell online in my spare time. I love dancing and singing along to my favourite music. I enjoy camping, swimming and walking. I like meeting people and making new friends, sharing new memories and experiences together. Thank you for taking the time to read this, I look forward to meeting you and helping you wherever I am able to. Have a wonderful day! Please note: I ask for double pay on National Bank Holidays and a contribution of £30 per week towards food if working in a live-in situation. Thank you for your understanding. 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"1","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"1","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"1","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"1"}
