My dream is to go back to working in healthcare, and more specifically in phlebotomy. In the past I’ve worked as a healthcare assistant in a hospital, as a live-in carer and as a holistic therapist so healthcare is an area that I’ve got a lot of experience in. Whilst working at the hospital, I gained experience in taking patients’ bloods and I’d love to have a career fully dedicated to that!
I’ve been through a lot in my life, and this is the first time in a long time where I’ve not been working. I was made homeless due to a personal situation. But I’m staying in a hostel at the moment and hope to be moved to more suitable accommodation soon. The hostel was meant to be emergency accommodation and I was only meant to be there for 90 days, but it’s been six months now.
I get support from another organisation that supports people who have experienced homelessness, and I’ve been volunteering with them for about six months now. I’m hoping to build up my skills and gain experience before getting back into work again. Thank you for your kindness and support.
