Richie Scott (private client)

I worked with Ms. Richie in her home for a little over 2 years. She needs 24 hour care because she lives alone and has Dementia. In the 2+ years I was with her the disease had significantly progressed. She has weakening leg strength due to a blood disorder that makes it difficult for her to walk or stand alone without help. My duties included, but were not limited to medication management and reminders, prepare meals, toileting, grooming, bathing, pt and ot exercises, weekly appts to get her blood levels checked and transport to the hospital when needed for blood transfusions as well as all other dr appts as needed. I worked with her every day as well as 3 nights a week and I worked 60 - 80+ hours a week. I also performed other duties as requested by her family.

Richetta B.

$20.00/hour · Suitland, MD

I enjoy working with people and I most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoyed taking care of my elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day. I don't ever say, "That's not my job" but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better. I take pride in attending to detail.

1) Why did I become a Caregiver because all my life I have always love helping other and it started with my owe family. I was the youngest of eleven children and I watch my nieces and my nephews. I was taught by my mother to treat people the way you want to be treated. 2) What do I like about being a Caregiver, being a Caregiver give me joy and a fulfillment that I can make someone life better and bring happiness. It is rewarding, that I want to show love by doing things that other s maybe cannot do for themselves. 3) What is a personal achievement I am proud of; this just happen within a couple of months ago when my mother was in a rehab center and my mother did not remember who I was as the time. She stated to me that god was going to bless me because I showed her love and I didn't know her. 4) I would like to introduce myself and to let you know, I am a Christian. I always treated people the way I want to be treated.. I have worked in healthcare for several years. My passion is tending to the patients mind, body and spirit, in other words to ensure that they thrive where ever they are. All my life I have always being a caregiver and a servant to other. I have done volunteer in the activities and hostility areas at nursing/rehabilitation center. My career has being in the computer areas but my heart have been caring for other. Before God decide to take my 97 years old mother home, I took care of all personal needs. I have worked for Carelinx since November 2015 and the first client I cared for was a 99 year young woman and she enrich my life., She was more than just a client. she became my family. She live to be 100 year young. Reference will be provided per request.
