Hello, I am Leah, a highly dedicated healthcare professional residing in Richmond. I am a woman, aged 48, with an impressive catalog of healthcare certifications that make me an ideal candidate for caregiver and personal support roles. With my Bachelor's Degree in Health Care and supporting certificates in Caregiver / Companion, Home Support Worker, CPR and First Aid—as well as a Health Care Aides (HCA) Certificate—I am fully prepared to provide full-time, live-out care services. Over the past year, I have gained valuable experience working with patients suffering from varying diagnoses such as Speech Impairment, Congestive Heart Failure, Pneumonia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Dementia, Diabetes, Incontinence, Arthritis, and much more. These experiences have only honed my compassion and skill, making me adept at specific healthcare procedures such as Bathing Assistance, Dressing Grooming assistance, Range of Motion Exercise, Bed Bath, Tube Feeding, and Lifts and transfers, among others. Aside from direct healthcare, I am also competent in assisting with housekeeping duties like laundry, grocery shopping, errands, vacuuming, and dish washing. Knowing that social connections are crucial for mental well-being, I am also prepared to escort my patients to appointments and plan outings and visits to friends, family, or neighbours. Furthermore, I can begin work immediately and am quite flexible with my schedule, being available weekday mornings and afternoons. I am also willing to relocate and travel if needed. As a non-smoker who fluently speaks English and holds a legal work permit, I strive to provide a safe and comfortable environment for my patients. While I might not have a driver's license or ability to swim, my commitment to patient care is evidenced through my readiness to support children, especially those with disabilities, and manage pet care. Lastly, I am willing to conduct a police check for your peace of mind and ensure that I am the right fit for your healthcare needs. As a Filipino citizen with ties to the resilient Filipino community, I bring a wealth of cultural understanding, patience, and traditional healthcare wisdom to my role.

I studied long term care aid at gateway college so i have a training and been OJT at crofton Manore.
