from Paraparaumu
Hi, my name is Karen, I am 50 years of age. I am a casual (part-time) Ambulance Officer with St John in the Horowhenua area. I have been with St John for 7 years, initially volunteering for the Wellington Events Team and then studying for my National Diploma in 2015. I love working on the front line ambulance and helping patients. It is a very rewarding job. I also have had some experience working in a hospital-level care rest home. I did not like the fact that often the residents didn’t get the time and care individually that they needed and deserved. I would be interested in caring for an older person who needs some home help and some TLC. I am a mother of 4 - two boys and two girls (the eldest now 26 and the youngest 15) and have spent a lot of time as a home executive running the household. I now also have two dogs and two cats :-) My working background originally was office administration, basic accounting and PA/executive assistant roles. I get on great with people of all ages and stages.
