About Tearra

Hello Everyone! I am a highly motivated, kind-hearted person who admires caring for others. As a senior caregiver, I have 9 years of experience in geriatric care within nursing homes, assisted living environments, home care, and hospital settings. I possess exceptional communication skills as well as superb problem-solving and organizational skills. I am able to learn new skills quickly and adapt to any changes. I have assisted patients with their activities of daily living, meal time prep, feeding, taking vital signs, blood draws, maintaining a clean household, transportation to appointments, and medication management. I am CPR/ First Aid certified. Background checks, fingerprints, and references are available upon request. I look forward to meeting you and your loved ones!
