my name is Sandra and I am a compassionate and experienced senior/health care professional based in Calgary. With 10 years of working experience, I am highly skilled in providing quality care and support to individuals in need. I am available to start on November 30, 2023.
In terms of availability, I am flexible and can work on Sundays, Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. Whether it's the morning, middle of the day, evening, or night, you can rely on me to be there for my patients.
As a responsible and reliable caregiver, I do not smoke and have a valid driver's license and vehicle, allowing me to travel and provide transportation to appointments and outings. I also hold a work permit and possess the necessary certifications, including Caregiver/Companion, Health Care Aides (HCA) Certificate, Home Support Worker, First Aid, and CPR.
While I may not be able to swim well, I have a genuine passion for working with individuals with disabilities and providing them with the care they deserve. I am comfortable working with children with disabilities and have the skills and knowledge to support them effectively.
As for the type of employment I am seeking, I am open to both full-time and part-time positions and prefer to work in a live-out arrangement. I have a Bachelor's degree in addition to my caregiving certifications, ensuring that I am well-equipped to offer comprehensive care.
In terms of duties, I am experienced in various tasks such as housekeeping, laundry, hand washing dishes, bathing assistance, Alzheimer's/dementia care, supervision, lifts and transfers, tube feeding, bed baths, dressing, and toileting assistance. I am well-versed in providing care for patients with Alzheimer's, dementia, diabetes, incontinence, visual and hearing impairments, arthritis, and speech impairments.
I have undergone a police check, and as a Canadian citizen, I am fluent in English. I believe that my experience, qualifications, and dedication make me a valuable asset in any home health care, retirement home, or clinic/hospital setting.
Thank you for taking the time to review my profile, and I look forward to the opportunity to contribute to the well-being and happiness of those in need.
