I am a dedicated and compassionate caregiver with 2 years of experience providing exceptional support to individuals in need. I am skilled in delivering personalized care, fostering a safe and nurturing environment, and promoting physical and emotional well-being. I am an effective communicator with experience collaborating with clients, families, and healthcare professionals. I am seeking a new challenge to positively impact the lives of those under my care. As a care assistant at Arunodaya Hostel & Rehabilitation Centre in Sri Lanka, I worked as a permanent caregiver for elderly and disabled residents. My responsibilities included but were not limited to: Providing direct resident care while promoting resident dignity and independence. Regularly observing residents' physical and mental conditions, and addressing their social and spiritual needs. Reporting changes and vital signs of patients/residents to the Medical Officer. Performing first aid and initiating emergency response and health & safety procedures. Maintaining accurate record keeping and administering assigned drugs. Assisting with residents' hygiene, grooming, and addressing nutritional needs with correct techniques. Providing wound care treatments. Serving meals to residents, performing kitchen cleanup tasks, and maintenance work. In this role, I demonstrated my ability to provide high-quality care to diverse and complex needs, as well as my compassion, patience, and empathy for the people I served. I also received positive feedback from the residents, their families, and the staff for my professionalism, reliability, and dedication. I am impressed by your company's mission to provide quality and affordable care to seniors and their families. I share your values of respect, dignity, and compassion, and I would love to be part of your team. I have excellent communication, problem-solving, and interpersonal skills, and I am always eager to learn new things and improve my abilities. I am also proficient in using various software and tools, such as Microsoft Office, CRM systems, and live chat platforms. In addition to my work experience, I have also completed several professional qualifications that have enhanced my skills and knowledge as a caregiver. I have a Diploma in Health and Social Care. I also have an International Certificate in Care Giving - Level 3 (UK OTHM) from the same institution, which focuses on the principles and practices of interpersonal care, domestic needs, personal care, nutrition, vital signs, and care of older clients. Furthermore, I have a Certificate in First Aid from Fast First Aid Services & Training Institute in Sri Lanka, which enables me to perform first aid and CPR/AED in emergencies. These qualifications have prepared me well for the challenges and responsibilities of the elderly caregiver position.
