About Frank .

As a carer I have worked with a variety of patients - from looking after Dementia patients to caring for people with Parkinson's disease. I have 3 years professional experience in the UK and 5 years in Spain. I have worked in care homes, for care agencies and for private clients doing domiciliary work and live in care and overnight shifts. My particular specialism is working as a carer for people with Dementia as I have training in specialised assistance for Alzheimer's. As well as working as a carer I was previously a firefighter and paramedic with Spanish Red Cross. I am also a trained Osteopath and previously ran my own business in this field. I am a cheerful, fun and a very open-minded individual and an honest and caring person. It is important to me to make a difference to every customer who I work with. I bring pleasant manners, trying to do my best at all times. I speak fluent English and Spanish and I am also insured.

Ok with cats or dogs

HomeTouch Client

“Following a severe stroke, my partner needed a carer and Frank was engaged by us via Hometouch for a period of 3 years. During this time Frank was always punctual and pleasant, hard-working, thoughtful and polite. He was also flexible about helping in the house with ironing, light cleaning, dog-walking and a bit of gardening. Frank is a completely honest person whom you can trust to have in your home, and he treated us with courtesy and respect at all times. We recommend him without hesitation as a carer and wish him very well for the future.”
