I am an experienced and compassionate Healthcare Assistant with over three years of experience supporting adults across NHS, hospital, community, domiciliary care, residential and supported-living environments. I currently work as a Healthcare Assistant within the NHS, where I provide safe, person-centred care and support patients with a wide range of physical health, mental health, frailty, dementia and complex care needs.
My experience includes working with older adults and individuals living with dementia, learning disabilities, autism, physical disabilities, mental health conditions and other complex needs. I am confident providing personal care, continence care, nutrition and hydration support, mobility and repositioning, rehabilitation support, patient observation and maintaining dignity, privacy and independence.

I also have experience with ECG recording, phlebotomy/venepuncture, cannulation-related care, specimen collection and accurate clinical documentation. I understand the importance of recognising deterioration, escalating concerns promptly and working effectively with nurses, doctors and the wider multidisciplinary team.
