Job overview

As I am applying for a job as an age care worker I have some experience working with vulnerable people, people who have medical conditions, people who need assistance. My real life experience is with my father who had cancer, I was active in giving him care, feeding him, helping him with his personal care. I have also taken cared of my husband who also had cancer and my younger sister who had cancer.. I have a passion of taking care of people, I have also experienced working in the US as a caregiver for 5months.There I learned to take care of different patients with different conditions. It was a very rewarding job because I knew that those people I assisted were in need of support, a helping hands, a friend, someone to talk to in times when they are lonely. I love being around the elderly because I learn a lot from them. I have a soft heart for them that's why when I thought of a change in carreer here in Australia, without a second thought I chose to be a CARER.
