About Rachael

I love the idea of giving care to someone who otherwise may be unable to care for themselves. My grandfather needed a caregiver himself when I was much younger and my family was unfortunate to have the worst experiences and I'd like to use this opportunity to make someone's experience a lot better and their lives easier.

I'm a very compassionate person and love taking good care of people. I always manage to make my clients smile by treating them like adults, paying them respect, and being very patient. Being a caregiver or a nurse assistant is not just a job; it is a passion. I have a CNA as well as med-tech, CPR, and First Aid training.

I became a caregiver in 1988 before I graduated from from high school. I had compassion for all types of individuals and wanted to help or take care of people. I love caring for individuals as if it they are members of my family - with compassion, empathy, and love. I appreciate the way I can positively impact individuals and their families. Families deserve a caregiver whom they can trust with their parent or child, and I am that person. I am very trustworthy, honest, and available for clients and their families. Even if you request my services on specific days, I will be there for you more often as needed. I run errands, provide medication reminders, assist with ADLs, do housework, and prep meals if needed. I have reliable transportation sources and insurance, and I also allow short notice calls.
