PA32 8XU 5985 Hi My name is Gary and I am originally from Scotland although I now work with clients all over the UK. After working for 12 years as a mental health support worker, I decided to broaden my horizons within the social care sector. I now work as a self-employed live-in carer. I work in a person-centred way with a broad range of clients including: physical disabilities, learning disabilities, Parkinson's, dementia, mental illness, palliative care and end of life care. I provide practical and emotional support to help people live a safe and independent life in their own home and community. This includes medication administration, personal care, continence care, moving and handling using hoists and other aids, cooking, cleaning and of course companionship. I am also happy to support clients to go on holiday at home or abroad (I have a wide experience of travel all over the world) I am an animal lover, so pets are no problem. I am also a keen motorcyclist and enjoy cooking. 1 2 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"1, 3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"1, 3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"1, 3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"1, 3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"1, 3","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"1, 3","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"1, 3"}

G15 7EP 108803 I have a great passion to help others live comfortably in their own homes. I assist clients with daily living tasks they can no longer perform personally due to illness, frailty or being affected with a physical disability, mobility issues. I have supported clients that were affected with Dementia, Parkinson disease and some needed companionship as they are lonely in their homes. I have also supported clients that were depressed and were very anxious about life. As no two people are the same, I work using the Person - Centred Approach. I treat clients with dignity and respect. This means I respect their rights, wishes, and choices as long as they do not put them into harm or danger. I work adhering to Legislation and Policies and Procedures. I am a team player and have a listening ear too. I bring smiles to my clients by appreciating them and treating them with respect and having time doing things the client wants and having cups of tea with cake or biscuits too. This helps to create a very good rapport. I love cooking and baking and sometimes try new things that clients want if I do now know them especially food as I am from Africa Originally. I love making someone smile daily by supporting them in A Person -Centred Way as it is to their choice not mine . I promote clients independence, that is letting them do what they can. I was a Primary School Teacher in Zimbabwe for over 22 years. I taught children from Primary one up to seven. When I came to the UK, I decided to help older adults and went to University to train as a Social Worker. I chose to work with older adults as I had a lot of interest to be with my grandparents when I was young. I had a very good relationship with them. I have very good listening skills and respect others to talk before me. I hold a Diploma in Social Work and I supported the elderly when I was on placement and I enjoyed that so much and this made me want to work as a Live-in-Carer. 1 0 {"field_week_day_first":1,"field_is_available_first":true,"field_care_type_first":"3","field_week_day_second":2,"field_is_available_second":true,"field_care_type_second":"3","field_week_day_third":3,"field_is_available_third":true,"field_care_type_third":"3","field_week_day_fourth":4,"field_is_available_fourth":true,"field_care_type_fourth":"3","field_week_day_fifth":5,"field_is_available_fifth":true,"field_care_type_fifth":"3","field_week_day_sixth":6,"field_is_available_six":true,"field_care_type_sixth":"3","field_week_day_seven":7,"field_is_available_seven":true,"field_care_type_seven":"3"}
