I am a very compassionate and understanding caregiver. I listen to the needs of my clients and can give reference on the two clients I faithfully cared for for long term. I have worked for over twenty years as a caregiver, before I was paid to do it. I cared for my disabled sister who had and have seizures and still does rely completely on others for everything. I cared for my mothers infected wounds from diabetes and also her arthritis plus checked her blood sugar and keept her from going into diabetic shock. I can deduce diabetic shock and can recognize an infected wound. I know how to work a g-t-tube and change depends for adults. Plus I have experience log rolling and using a Hoyt lift. I have cared for a quadriplegic through Maxim Health Care as a respite care worker when I first turned eighteen years old. This care allowed me to learn the lift training, feeding tube usage, log rolling and also administering breathing treatments. I am also IHSS certified.
