Summary
Hello my name is Amy
I have a passion for elderly care giving, I have worked across the sector in Northern Ireland as a Domiciliary care giver and also as a full time care giver inside a care home facility.
I have worked casually, part time and full time roles in the sector.
I have worked with clients that have had dementia to clients that just required a social call for their mental health.
I do believe I could be an asset to your company and would look forward to helping achieve a high standard of care for all clients.
Thank you
