About Esther K.
I am a dedicated healthcare professional with extensive experience in providing care for patients in their homes. Since 2020, I have been working as a live-in carer, delivering personalized support and care. Prior to this, I held the position of Field Care Supervisor, where I was responsible for overseeing care for approximately 100 patients with diverse needs, conducting risk assessments, developing care plans, and training and mentoring staff.
I am dependable, loyal, honest, and flexible in both my working practices and personal life. I excel in team settings, building strong relationships to achieve shared goals.
Having thoroughly enjoyed my time as a Care Supervisor and live-in carer, I am now ready to transition into a Support Worker role in a care home, where I can continue to make a meaningful impact.
