Summary

Over my years of cleaning I have always taken pride in my work and do my job to the best of my ability.

My last job at Cardinia Community Aged Care involved me to clean a 36 room wing on my own, I did a certain number of detail cleans a day and the rest were bathroom cleans, i cleaned 4 public toilets on the wing, a staff room, 4 public lounge rooms and a dining room, every day.

When a resident passed I also did vacate cleans on the rooms from top to bottom and all over.

The residents were always so appreciative of the work I did for them, making them happy by doing something so simple for them makes coming to work every day worth it and makes my job enjoyable.

I took pride in this job and i have had the best audit results throughout the facility a number of times.

Once settled after moving and once working my aim is to study Aged care and become a Carer.
