About Eunice C.

My name is Eunice Chikafu, and I have extensive experience in the care industry, particularly in working with elderly individuals in both nursing and residential care settings. Over the years, I have developed a compassionate and client-centered approach, focusing on building meaningful relationships with those I care for. By understanding their personal interests and hobbies, I aim to enhance their quality of life and ensure they are supported in a way that brings them comfort and joy. I have provided care for individuals with a range of conditions, including dementia, Parkinson’s disease, stroke, mental health challenges, epilepsy, and more. My expertise extends to assisting clients with complex care needs, such as those with stoma bags, PEG feeding tubes, and catheters. I am skilled in using a variety of care equipment, including standing hoists, full-body hoists, turntables, banana boards, sliding sheets, and walking frames. I am also experienced in supporting clients with personal grooming, ensuring they look and feel their best at all times. I am always committed to providing high-quality care, and I continuously seek to improve my knowledge and skills through training and development. About Eunice I am a compassionate, dedicated, and hardworking individual in my 50s, with strong communication and listening skills. I take pride in my empathetic nature and approachable demeanor, which allows me to form trusting and supportive relationships with clients and their families. I am reliable, professional, and always aim to create a positive and nurturing environment for those under my care. Hobbies and Interests I have a strong passion for cooking, especially exploring different cuisines and experimenting with new recipes. I enjoy learning about new dishes through cooking programs and have a particular love for spicy food. My favorites include cottage pie, roast dinners, fish dishes, casseroles, and macaroni cheese. In my spare time, I enjoy meeting new people, exploring different cultures, and attending church activities. Gardening and music are also significant interests, offering me a sense of relaxation and joy.
