DannyFx Akins

I am an early-career support worker with hands-on experience across hospital and residential care settings, delivering person-centered support, personal care, meal assistance, medication administration, and safe handling. I follow care plans closely and have formal training in Food Safety Level 2, Health, Safety & Environment procedures, and safeguarding, enabling me to work reliably on flexible shift patterns including weekends and bank holidays.

I specialize in supporting adults to maintain dignity and independence while building positive relationships with service users, families, and clinical teams. In my role at Health Partners, I followed care plan directives and reported health and behavioral changes to nursing staff, contributing to timely interventions and consistent care; in recent hospital placements I ensured dietary accuracy and upheld infection-control standards, skills I am ready to bring to a supported living service like The Oaks.
