Whilst I was manager for my son's soccer team for 6 years, I have successfully completed 'Head and Spinal Injury' Certificate along with my First Aid and CPR. I also have first hand experience in dealing with head and spinal injury in 2 different events that I was one of the first responders to both accidents.
I also was witness to a spinal injury on the soccer field and observed the first aiders (who were off duty paramedics) treat the patient/player.
I have completed many different courses to develop my knowledge and profession development to assist in my carer as a Support Worker/ Office Manager.
As a full time carer for my son who has ASD L2, Speech and Language delay, ADHD - Inattentive, Anxiety, Depression I have had extensive insight and experience working with Allied Health professionals with my Son's ongoing needs to help him learn the life skills that he needed so much assistance with.
At every life stage his needs and support changed so I had to adapt my strategy of how his needed a different style of support.
