I deem myself an excellent candidate for a Home Care position because I possess relevant experience, compassion and a cool temperament to work effectively with the elderly. I have successfully completed my certificate III in Aged care and Disability including Manual Handling, First aid and CPR. I do hold current DCSI and National Police Clearance certificates. Since I have worked for the elderly and recently completed my work placement from Bupa (Woodville), I am familiar with the ins and outs of this job. I have performed a variety of tasks including bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, lifting and feeding under the supervision of a registered nurse. Besides my formal qualifications, I have good planning and time management skills, and can perform all the duties including meal preparation, making bed, laundry and home cleaning. You will also find that I have a genuine passion and heart to care for the aged. I have a pleasant personality, easy to get along with and able to interact with all types of people from different cultural backgrounds. I comprehend that it is often very difficult to work with residents who are suffering from dementia, Alzheimer’s or other disorders, I strive hard to understand each resident’s ailment and manage working with them accordingly. Moreover, I have a strong knowledge of Manual Handling, CPR and First Aid; I am on my toes all the time where resident care is concerned.
