SAID ADDOW

During my three-week position as a caregiver at Windsor Care, I provided compassionate and attentive support to residents, assisting with daily living activities such as personal care, mobility, and mealtime assistance. I worked closely with a team of healthcare professionals, ensuring a safe and positive environment for residents and adapting to individual needs to promote their well-being. This role allowed me to apply and expand the practical skills I was developing through my studies in the New Zealand Certificate in Health and Wellbeing Level 2, including effective communication, empathy, and the fundamentals of elderly care.

In my role as a waiter, I provided high-quality customer service in a fast-paced dining environment, managing tables, taking orders, and ensuring timely and accurate delivery of meals. I worked closely with the kitchen staff to handle special requests, dietary restrictions, and efficient communication of orders. This position helped me develop strong multitasking abilities, a focus on customer satisfaction, and the ability to work effectively as part of a team, all while maintaining a friendly and professional attitude.

As a housekeeper, I focused on maintaining high standards of cleanliness and organization in residential and/or commercial spaces. My responsibilities included thorough cleaning of rooms and common areas, sanitizing surfaces, managing linens, and ensuring all supplies were restocked for guest or resident comfort. This role required strong attention to detail, time management, and the ability to work independently or as part of a team to meet strict cleanliness and presentation standards.
