My main work involves care and support to clients. This includes maintaining relationships with key stakeholders (care-team) other than the client, and involves an array of professionals each with different roles and responsibilities towards the same client. I handle clients of different needs who require assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as personal care and medication administration. My focus is on the clients, in promoting and advocating for their basic human rights, their dignity, improved quality of life, independence and self-determination. Willing to relocate: Anywhere
