I am a motivated, hard working job seeker passionate about aged care and end-of-life wellbeing.
I hold 3+ years of personal experience in aged and palliative care (in home for my father and both grandmothers). During these periods I built strong emotional intelligence and resilience, as well patience and perseverance in difficult situations.
In pursuing a career change, I carry with me strong teamwork, management and communication skills, as well as a desire to learn and improve.
I currently volunteer in aged care support at an aged care facility in Willoughby, and I am seeking more dedicated experience while I pursue my Certificate III in Individual Support (Ageing & Disability).
