I have extensive experience (15 years) supporting clients (male & female) with all elements of support (ambulatory, non-ambulatory, dementias and hospice). I'm dependable (never missed a day of work, including 24/7 shifts). I am in excellent health (never smokes, drank or had taken drugs), have a strong back, able to assist with lifting, current on all vaccines and TB test, drug tested, CPR/First Aide certified, no criminal record, clean DMV record and fully insured. My key mission is to provide hope, improve quality of life, preserve dignity and produce value for each client, as well as their family members. My passion is to see others thrive. If you believe I may be a potential match, I will value speaking with you directly to discuss your support needs. Vickie A. Reilly 408-509-5025 vickieareilly@gmail.com
