Alina A.

I have dedicated many years to the care sector, specialising in a range of conditions including Alzheimer's, dementia, diabetes, Parkinson's disease, stroke, and vascular dementia. My diverse experience allows me to provide comprehensive support and care, particularly in my role as a live-in carer, which I truly enjoy. Caring is my passion, and I possess a wealth of knowledge, experience, and skills that give me valuable insight into the medical aspects of care. I excel at observing clients' needs and effectively communicating with all parties involved, including medical teams and community support services. Families I have worked with for extended periods consistently praise my confidence, competence, and ability to build strong connections with their loved ones. One of my greatest joys in caregiving is preparing delicious meals to share with my clients. I thrive on creating a safe and secure environment, often incorporating humor and camaraderie into our interactions. Before transitioning into care, I was a primary school teacher, where I found fulfillment in inspiring children to learn and discover new things. This background has made my transition into caregiving feel entirely natural. My role in healthcare extends beyond just a job; I genuinely enjoy working directly with individuals, especially on a one-on-one basis. This approach allows me to foster meaningful relationships, provide unwavering support, and make a real difference in their lives. I find this to be immensely beneficial for families, which is why I prefer to work in private care. I believe that the bonds formed can be incredibly rewarding for everyone involved. For me, it’s not just about providing assistance; it’s about truly understanding and connecting with people.
