I am a certified caregiver providing home-based care for elderly patients.
With my previous training at Dolphin corner home i was provided home care for rotations of up to ten patients a week. I took on basic medical care, keeping track of their mental state, offering basic developmental therapies, and helping with essential life duties. My patients were typically 65-80 years old with a range of physical and mental health concerns.
As my experience has grown, I have come to understand the signs that someone requires a further medical intervention, learning support, or simply someone to talk to.
