Share a time when you displayed [one of our company’s values]. Capable, honest, attentive, Mindful & Pioneering?
In the high care/Covid-19 ward where I worked alongside a senior nurse, we had four patients assigned to us, one whose stats dropped so low that everyone worried she wouldn't survive the night, so I encouraged her to get through the night and to defeat her illness, and she recovered and was discharged two days later thanking me for my encouragement.”

In what skills area do you feel most qualified to be a caregiver?

Due to my experience, I enjoy taking care of my client's personal hygiene as I'm quite hygienic. There is no better way to start the day than to be fresh and clean.

In addition, I am very attentive when it comes to pressure care and mobility assistance”
