About Dezmere

Hello, my name is Dezmere Gordon. I have a can-do attitude and a very positive outlook of myself. My goal has always been to have professionalism, empathy, competency, and communication skills to work with elder people. What attracted me to be a caregiver is knowing that I could have an impact on someone's life. I always wanted to put a smile on my residents' faces in everything I did for them and I wanted them to know I cared and they had me to count on. In 2019 I was honored with the ALZHEIMER'S ASSOCIATION CAREGIVERS AWARD at Manorhouse assistant Living and I was on the news. I also was on Brookdale Assistant Living Brochures and their Billboard and gave a testimony about being a good Lead caregiver and what our residents meant to me, in 2017. Being a caregiver fulfills my purpose in life.

Good Listener Have been in healthcare all my life (now 73).As an LPN, (Licensed Practical Nurse) I was a hospital discharge planner, a nurse liaison for a nursing home, a private duty nurse, a hospice intake coordinator, among other jobs. I no longer hold a nursing license. I do hold a CPR card that is current. Understand the need for following instructions. Enjoy working with people in homecare taking care whatever is needed. I have seen people who are untrained and without common sense and this is a waste of everyone's time. I like the idea of taking care of things the resident doesn't have to try to do, so he or she can spend their energies doing things they enjoy. That is what I am proud of.

Mature woman. I've done home care for over fifteen years . I really enjoy my senior clients, find their views and experiences very interesting. I can hold an intelligent conversation, but also try to be aware of giving people their space/ quiet times. I now do mostly companion care. My clients are still somewhat mobile. Wheelchair or walker . No heavy lifting (stand-by assist )
