PROFILE:
I am an experienced Caregiver with a great passion of caring for the
elderly. In my practice, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in
caring and promoting the well-being of the elderly through their
own principles, beliefs and values. Additionally, I am also skilled
and experienced on how to involve the elderly in decisions
regarding their day-to-day activities. Treating the elderly with
dignity and respect underpins my work. I enjoy their company and
sharing in their life stories and experiences. Through the EMPP
program, I look forward to specializing more in this field and to
offering my skills and expertise in assisting the elderly.
