About


Hi, my name is Pratiksha, Tell us why you would make a great Hero. I am a Registered Nurse by profession. I consider myself to be a person that is energetic, cheerful, and empathetic and enjoys assisting others. Seven years ago, I joined the health profession to bring a positive impact on people's lives with my service. I have been engaged in community assistance and humanitarian projects since the completion of my studies. With the desire, knowledge, and experience of working in a community, I can be the next hero. Tell us how you will share one of your skills or hobbies to help someone in our community. I like to describe myself as a people person. I almost find common ground even with the stranger. I love to know about people and their stories. It may be beneficial to become a support worker or companion for someone to prevent loneliness. My favourite hobbies are cooking and dancing, which is also a good exercise method. Dancing makes it possible to have fun and work out at the same time. I have good clinical exposure in hospitals so that I can assist someone with chronic medical conditions as well. What is a quote that inspires you? My favourite quote is by Nelson Mandela "I never lose. I either win or learn''. Which I try to follow in life.

Pratiksha is very helpful and so willing to assist. The kitchen has never looked so clean and tidy. Punctual, reliable and hard working. A pleasure to have as a Support Worker.
