Jude is a dedicated Professional Caregiver with years of experience in elderly care within homes and assisted living environments. Recognized for his ability to monitor and provide emotional and physical support to patients and staff, he possesses exceptional communication abilities, as well as cultural sensitivity to deal with diverse populations. His interest in elderly care-giving started during his youth service to his country. He was posted to a rural area to serve and realized that less or no attention was given to the elderly in the African society. He then took it upon himself to become an advocate of care for the elderly in Africa. He has created awareness in elderly care by writing to the government to establish care facilities and assisted living homes across Nigeria and Africa so that the elderly could benefit from such establishments. He has established elderly communities in rural areas and has involved students to volunteer to care for the elderly in rural areas during their holidays.
