Volunteer Work

  • A brief overview of my volunteer work as a healthcare assistant at the Victory Presbyterian Church in Accra, Ghana during the COVID-19 outbreak. I had the privilege of contributing to the community's response to the pandemic for a period of three(3) months from May 2020 to July 2020. During this time, I played an integral role in assisting the church's efforts to support vulnerable members of the congregation, especially the elderly and those with underlying health conditions.

Personal Support to a Family Member

  • Provides a personal care support in assisting my 80-year-old grandmother at home, which I consider an important part of my experience in healthcare assisting. Over the past ten(10) years, I have been providing care and support to my grandmother, who faces age related challenges and health issues, ensuring her comfort and safety in her daily life. I help her with personal care tasks such as bathing, grooming and dressing, maintaining her dignity and ensuring she feels comfortable throughout the process. Also assist in her medications, making sure that she takes the correct doses at the appropriate times and keeping track of her prescription to avoid any errors. I prepare meals on her dietary needs, ensuring she receives nutritious and balanced food while being mindful of any restrictions due to her health condition. I regularly monitor her vital signs(blood pressure and temperature) and report any concerning changes to her healthcare providers, ensuring she receives timely medical attention when needed.
