I have been a caregiver since 2009. I have a great passion for taking care of others and have spent most of my working career doing so. I have extensive experience in almost every area providing care for this population. I have worked with a variety of Alzheimer's and dementia clients as well as Parkinson's, MS, Diabetes, severe respiratory issues, Huntington's disease , cancer and those on hospice all which include many different special needs. I have a degree in Psychology from CSUS that I earned in 1983. If there's something new I'm not familiar with, I'm more than willing to learn. I love to cook and most likely can make almost anything up on request. I'm always willing to do house cleaning and laundry. I take pride in my work and always go above and beyond what is expected of me. I enjoy conversing with those I provide care for, they always have such interesting memories and history. My mission is to always treat my clients with the compassion, respect and dignity they deserve. I also work at the San Juan Unified School District with Autistic preschool children which requires much energy, patience and understanding. I am also fully vaccinated. I look forward to the opportunity to speak with you further about my qualifications and how I can help you.

Love working with elderly people giving my time to helping others get the best quality of life. Working with the elderly is like walking through a chapter in history. I wanted to make a difference in elderly lives.

I am a friendly, outgoing person who has a big heart for seniors and enjoys helping them to live life to its fullest. What's most important to me are relationships and living a life of love for God and for one another. I especially enjoy my conversations with seniors-I love their stories. I like to help them get out in nature, enjoy a mind challenging game or cook their favorite meal. I'm available for transportation needs, shopping, meal planning, cooking , walks, light exercise, very,very light housekeeping, misc. and medication reminders.

I Enjoy making people's lives easier for them. Making sure that they have their dignity and still feel that they are in charge of their own home. Not go in and take over. Having a good relationship with who I help means so much. The reason in 1990 that I became a Caregiver was My Mom had breast cancer and I wanted to be the best I could be to take care of her. After My Mom passed away in 1993. I went back to another profession until 2008, since then I have had many Sweet Clients that will always be in My Heart[?] I am a Spoiler but know that whatever the Family and Professionals recommend is what should be done, and am Happy to fulfill what the needs are for this Special Client

My expertise lies in assisting geriatric clients with activities to enrich your daily life. What attracted me to become a caregiver is that I would like to make a difference in people's lives. The thing I enjoy most about being a caregiver is providing companionship and assisting people with shopping and light housekeeping. A personal achievement that I am proud of is becoming an LVN as a single parent. I have worked the last 3 years as an activities assistant.

I pride myself on how patient I am , I really love what I do , I've always been the caregiver of my family . What made me want to become a caregiver was one of my own aunts got stage 4 cancer and I then put myself in trade school for CNA so I could learn how to care for her . I enjoy all the different personalities and people I get to meet while providing care ... one achievement I'm proud of is making it 2 years in memory care as well as picking up skills in medtech

I am a very compassionate, patient, and nurturing person. I have the skills and experience in home health care. I am very passionate when it comes to helping the elderly stay in their own home. I enjoy making a positive difference in my clients life. Mostly I enjoy the little bonding moments that I share with my clients. I am personally proud of the person I have become and my choice of becoming a care giver.

Everyone has a story. I like helping people and found working as a 'Home Care Aid' very fulfilling. Several years ago, my first client was a woman in hospice and I filled in so the family could get some rest. As I sat beside the lady, I looked around the room and saw pictures of her as a young woman on her wedding day, as a young mother and later as a grandmother. Her cook book was there with all kinds of personal notes etc. and just think I was so lucky to have been able to be there with her for that short time. Most of my clients I have been able to help with errands, transportation, meals, assisting with bathing and companionship. I value the time I have spent with the new friends I have made - short term and long term.
