Work History

Disability Support Worker

Mable Platform

I support a client living with stage 6 Alzheimers by providing consistent, respectful guidance throughout her daily routine. This includes gentle prompting with essential tasks such as showering, toileting, and eating, while ensuring her dignity and comfort are always prioritised. I also encourage meaningful social engagement by taking her out for walks and visits to the local coffee shop, where we enjoy lunch together. These outings promote a sense of connection, routine and well-being in her day-to-day life.
