About Gertrude

I decided to become a caregiver because I took care my sick grandmother who passed 7 years ago, and I came to the realization compassionate care made her lived a little longer, so I want to extend my loving and caring heart to old and patient in need of help, I have a 7 year experience in health care and I enjoy giving a helping hand to the sick in need of love and care. I am companionate, honest, well devoted, humble, gentle, respectful, trustworthy, one who can handle work under stressful or tedious environment.

    \"My passion for caretaking came when my grand dad was left under my care and I took care of him until he passed away. Since then, I have been taking care of loved ones until they've sadly departed. All of my experience has been hands-on and I can assist in all aspects of home care from companionship to bathing/dressing, to meal preparation. I can also assist in managing doctor visits and ensuring that doctors stay coordinated. I am a certified CNA / LPN With the Maryland Board of Nursing and also certified in First Aid, CPR and AEDs for adults and children. My hobbies are reading and spending time with family, time permitting. I have references available upon request, and they would be happy to speak with you about the level of care I have for my patients and the type of care I offer. I'm open to short-term engagements, but prefer longer-term so I can build your trust over time and provide care in a way that meets each of your unique needs. I would enjoy talking about helping you or your loved one.

    I have been a caregiver for 15 years and like to care for elderly people so much - it is not about money, it is about doing the right thing. My patient could be my grandmother or my aunt, and they deserve the best care.
