SUGGESTED ANSWER:
“Thank you for giving me the opportunity to be interviewed for this position as a disability worker today.
I am a kind, compassionate person who approaches challenges with an upbeat, can-do attitude. I am fully aware of the emotional and physical demands that come with choosing a career as a disability worker, but I am confident in my ability to meet these challenges and offer excellent care to my client.
As someone who considers themselves to have a high level of emotional intelligence, I recognize the value of catering to the psychological as well as the physical requirements of my client.
Having volunteered with the RDA, I know the significance of not just providing my client care but also facilitating enrichment activities. With years of experience as a healthcare assistant for the National Health Service, I am well-versed in safeguarding regulations and procedures, as well as highly proficient in providing care.
From my time in the National Health Service, I have gained medical knowledge that would be valuable to understanding a client’s complex needs, and I am also confident at administering basic medications. If given this opportunity, I commit to working hard to offer the highest standard of care and support to my clients.”
Q2. What motivates you as a disability worker?
SUGGESTED ANSWER
“In my professional life, I am driven and motivated by the impact I am able to have on my clients through my work with them. Whilst providing care and support to disabled or vulnerable individuals can be particularly challenging both physically and mentally, seeing the positive impact of the care I provide is ultimately extremely rewarding and fulfilling.
Secondly, I am motivated by my clients as individuals. As a disability worker, you form close relationships with each of your clients, and so every success and milestone they achieve gives you a great sense of pride and accomplishment.
Outside of my work, I am driven by the continued and unwavering support of my family who I am proud to provide for.”
