Madeleen Cronje

My name is Madeleen Cronje. I am a single, white female caregiver, 38 years of age.
I currently work at Anerley Haven Old age home, I have been there for 3 years now. I have done my course at Genesis Trading Centre.
I work in the Alzeimers' department and also with the very frail residents.
My positive points are that I am very patient ( as I adore the elderley). I do not find caregiving as a very hard job, because I enjoy caring for the residents. I am also flexible and smile even on the worst of days.
I can speak a little bit of Zulu as well, obviously English and Afrikaans fluently. As alot of the elderly prefer to speak Afrikaans aspecially the ones with Alzeimers. (who is Afrikaans originally)
Also have I done extra courses like Hartmann's Mollicare and Safety. I know and have lots of experience in the prevention and treatment of bedsores. Also are we trained to record everything on nursing records right through the day, every day.I am punctional. If I say I will do something, I do it, no turning back. Although I stay in KZN, I am bissy selling our house as I really want to be with my family in Pretoria. (Preferably Pretoria North).Salaries for Caregivers in KZN is the bare minimum (R4000 pm) and I need
to earn a bit more than that to get by. I am willing to relocate immediately. I also have a Health and Safety Officer diploma (SAMTRAC) which can be a huge advantage.I can e-mail all my certificates and diplomas when requested. Please consider me you will never be dissapointed. I always ask myself when working with a resident, "Is this the way I would treat my parents?".
Please help me find a job in caregiving. My boss will also be willing to give a great referral letter for me.
Kind Regards
Madeleen Cronje
