About Anthony

I have been a caregiver for two years now, although I do feel that I have been a caregiver unofficially longer than that due to when I was younger I used to take care of my sick uncle before he passed with difficulties of diabetes, and my mother used to be a caregiver before she moved on with careers and I always used to help her with her patient. Her patient and his wife considered us family because we cared greatly for them.I had a patient for a long period of time who was an elderly woman and her family and herself loved me I was always complimented on the care I provided for her and her doctors told me her health inclined when she was in my care. She lived alone and was not too efficient alone to do things for herself so I pretty much did everything for her. I kept her company and followed up with her doctors and appointments while keeping her organized in which lead to my great recognition for being of assistance to her as her caregiver. I have worked with younger patients with disabilities and special needs. I have worked with a patient who has Parkinson's disease and was not mobile or verbal, he needed help with mobility and walking so I monitored his bowel movements and his eating I was more of aid to him because his mother was a retired stay at home mother so she needed assistance so I assisted bathing as well and keeping him company and assured that through paying close attention being that he wasn't verbal his needs were met as accurate as possible.

    I assist my patient with walking and light exercise to instill proper health patterns. I plan and prepare meals, followed by cleaning up with keeping in mind to monitor food expiration dates, and make future meals. I also change linens, as needed. In order to help the patient live in a more comfortable setting I do light housekeeping which includes: dusting, vacuuming, washing dishes, yard work, laundry, ironing, and taking out garbage. I help out with running errands by (picking up prescriptions, dry cleaning, and groceries). I maintain calendars and organize mail while making daily notes that keep the patient in a more organized manner. Most importantly I gladly engage in activities to ensure companionship, while also providing medication reminders and monitor changes in patient’s health to create a longer living life.

    Hello my name is Rosana Valadez and i became a caregiver a decade ago when I had to take care of one of my loved ones. I enjoyed taking care of elder family members and would like to help others in this way. What I like about being a caregiver is that I learn more and more as time passes, what my patients expect from me and also what I learn from them, the care that they want, and the friendship that is built. I'm caring, outgoing, fun and always have a smile on my face. I'm a people person - friendly, kind, gentle, compassionate, dependable. I have a good sense of humor. I love being a caregiver and helping families. I can provide quality care for you or your loved one and put your mind at ease. Available Monday-Friday from 8am to 4pm. Full time or atleast 30 hours a week.
