Teresa Macua

I am a compassionate caregiver companion with experience caring for elderly and serving chronically ill patients including those with dementia and disabilities. I assisted residents with daily routines and personal care. I hold an Elderly Caregiver Certificate with First Aid.

I did voluntary work at Murambi Old age- home, which is a hospihome, to further my skill base and experience. My experience has allowed me to develop substantial care-giving skills. I am therefore able to assist families with general care of their loved ones and those vulnerable.

I possess good listening skills and I can work well in a team. I am very patient, kind, compassionate and relate well with people. I am neat in appearance, very calm and have a professional attitude. I look forward to meeting a new family.
