In one instance, a senior client was experiencing severe anxiety due to a recent move. I addressed this by first listening to their concerns and then creating a personalized care plan that included familiar activities and routines. I also involved their family to provide additional support and reassurance. Over time, their anxiety reduced, and they began to feel more comfortable in their new environment.

I prioritize safety by conducting regular assessments of the living environment, ensuring all necessary medical equipment is in good working order, and staying updated on emergency protocols. I also maintain open communication with family members and healthcare providers to monitor any changes in the senior's condition. By being proactive and attentive, I can quickly address any potential risks.

Building trust starts with active listening and showing genuine empathy. I take the time to understand each client's unique needs, preferences, and life experiences. By respecting their autonomy and involving them in care decisions, I create a sense of partnership. Additionally, consistent and reliable care helps establish a strong foundation of trust over time.

I approach resistance with patience and understanding, recognizing that it may stem from fear, discomfort, or a desire for independence. I take the time to explain the benefits of the care plan and involve the client in decision-making. If agitation occurs, I remain calm and use de-escalation techniques, such as offering reassurance or redirecting their attention to a calming activity.

I have extensive experience managing a variety of medical needs, including administering medications, monitoring vital signs, and assisting with mobility. I maintain detailed care records and communicate regularly with healthcare providers to ensure the senior's treatment plan is followed correctly. I also assist with scheduling appointments and advocating for the client's needs during medical visits.
