About Kate J.

I have been dedicated to the care sector for the past 15 years, specializing in providing compassionate support to the frail and elderly, as well as delivering end-of-life care in care homes and live-in settings. In my role as a professional caregiver, I focus on delivering person-centred care tailored to each individual’s needs, as outlined in their Care Plan. I am committed to respecting clients’ dignity and property, promoting their independence, and maintaining accurate records and reviews. In addition to elderly care, I have experience working in a mental health hospital, where I supported clients with their daily routines and ensured a safe, supportive environment. My work extends to assisting individuals of all ages with physical or learning disabilities, including those on the Autism Spectrum. This has involved planning daily activities, accompanying clients on shopping trips and to appointments, cooking, cleaning, and other essential tasks, always guided by the individual’s needs and preferences. Colleagues, friends, and neighbors describe me as empathetic, good-natured, approachable, and hardworking, with a friendly demeanor and a sense of humor that helps put others at ease. I am diligent and honest in my work, using my initiative to adapt to different situations as they arise. In my free time, I enjoy cooking, singing, and going for walks, activities that allow me to recharge and stay connected with what brings me joy.
