About Patience M.

Since 2011, I have gained extensive experience working in residential homes, supported living accommodations, and as a live-in carer, providing care to clients in their own private homes. I have had the privilege of working with both young and elderly individuals, offering professional care to clients with conditions such as dementia, Parkinson's disease, diabetes, high blood pressure, autism, and various physical and mental health challenges. I am a dedicated, adaptable, and conscientious care worker with a passion for supporting individuals in a way that promotes their independence and quality of life. I believe in treating every client with respect and dignity, ensuring they feel valued and empowered to engage in activities they enjoy, including those they used to participate in before their health challenges arose. In my personal time, I enjoy watching TV, reading, going for walks, shopping, cleaning, cooking, and playing games. I also love taking my clients out to day centres, the cinema, or for meals, and I’m always happy to accompany them to appointments, offering both practical support and companionship. I am currently available for work and offer complete flexibility, including the ability to travel nationwide. While I typically prefer a rotation of 4 weeks on and 1 week off, I am open to discussing any specific needs or preferences you may have.

“My 88-year-old mother was beautifully looked after by Patience, who was friendly, caring, and always good-humoured, knowing just what my mother needed or wanted and acting appropriately. She and my mother formed a lovely relationship over the two weeks. I would strongly recommend her to anyone requiring live-in care for an elderly person.”
