Rudo M.

My name is Rudo Magara born in Harare the Capital of Zimbabwe. l moved to England in March 2001 after losing my Dad to Cancer. Upon my arrival l got a Live in Care job in Richmond and as years went on l worked in residential homes, nursing homes and domiciliary care within my local area where I absolutely loved working with ICT patients coming out of hospital and needing help settling in back in their homes. Whilst working as a Domiciliary Carer l got my biggest ever accolade from my employer in the United States of America with praises showering from Four States and I have also won numerous Carer of the Month awards. To date l have 21 years experience as a carer most spent as a private live in carer due to continuous recommendations and l have hands on experience working with teams of specialists like OTs, physiotherapists, social workers and District/Community Nurses and GPs. I hold an NVQ Level 2 in Health and Social Care acquired at Northbrook College. My other most valued experience was with Chiltington Residential Home where I doubled up as Carer and Cooking in the Main Kitchen that enhanced my Food Nutrition passion which has turned into my main hobby - cooking. I am skilled in assisting with daily living activities including administering medication, meal preparation and personal care. I am also very passionate about improving patient well being and independence. I have a proven track record of delivering high quality care and exceeding patient expectations, supportive, understanding and encouraging is amongst my strengths with all clients and have been commended for providing dignified and dependable care.
