About Arlene G.
I have been in the care industry since 2004. I am a reliable and caring person. I look at every individual as unique and try to understand the person, so I can deliver the care and meet the needs of the individual to ensure person-centred care. I grew up in an extended family where our elderly members were looked after in our home. I am passionate about caring for the elderly as i consider them as a family member. I am a trustworthy person and professional in my work.
