PERSONAL SUMMARY
A highly trained Care Worker who has a natural calling to look after others. Maxine has a can-do approach to things, good communication skills and a patient focused attitude towards her work. She can make a real difference to the lives of vulnerable people, giving them the support they need to live independently in their own homes. Her key strengths include, but are not limited to, continually assessing a clients’ needs to ensure the service being provided offers the right level of care and support, at the right time. In her current role her duties vary substantially from client to client so that no two days are the same. At work she has a reputation for dealing with a wide range of age and social groups. During her career she has cared for clients with physical, emotional, or cognitive impairments. On a personal level she considers herself a “whistle blower” who is not afraid to raise any concerns she may have about clients or fellow carers. Right now, she wants to join a company that has a fantastic reputation in the local community.
