I am a kind, caring individual who has been working in the care sector for 5 years both in the community with care agencies and in local resident care homes.

I am a quick learner and able to use my own initiative, after spending the last year and nine months working at my recent job, i worked night shifts alone as a healthcare assistant this has added to my skills of working indepenently but i am also able to work part of a team.
