About Lynn

I am an upbeat, dedicated, and reliable Nursing Assistant Registered with 13 years of caregiving experience for older and disabled persons. I became a caregiver because I wanted a more personally rewarding job after having worked for a large corporation for many years. I have a heart for seniors and the disabled! They have so many interesting life stories and wisdom to share. It is rewarding to see a client smile and reach for my hand because then I know I have brightened their day. My references will tell you that I am a compassionate, reliable, and trustworthy person who is able to lift people's spirits....even on a gloomy day. I am skilled in all aspects of personal care as well as in housekeeping assistance. Hope to hear from you! Lynn R.

Lyle Hassebroek

My client was an older man with Parkinson's disease. I helped with medication management, meal preparation, PT exercises, outdoor walks, and provided conversation and companionship. I read a lot about his condition so I could understand his difficulties and therefore take better care of him.

Robert Weaver

My client was a recliner-bound older man who could only walk with a walker. He had COPD and severe anxiety so it was hard for him to breathe. I took care of his personal ADLs: toileting, dressing, personal hygiene, grooming, transfers, ambulatory assistance, urinal assistance, medication management, and mental stimulation. I helped him with his oxygen and nebulizer treatments. I also did simple meal preparation and light housekeeping. We had a lot of fun playing cards and Scrabble, watching TV, looking through catalogs and books, listening to family stories, and going on outings when he was able! He was a wonderful man. I took care of him until he passed away.

Jerry Mills

My client was a totally disabled and recliner-bound older man with Cerebral Palsy. He could not hear or talk or walk or feed himself. So I took care of his personal ADLs: bathing, toileting, dressing, grooming, personal hygiene, transfers, ambulatory assistance, incontinence care, catheter care, assistance with feeding tubes, and simple meal preparation. I also did laundry and light housekeeping, and accompanied him on doctor visits. I took care of him until he passed away. He was a sweet man.

In addition, I am US Army Reserve since in 2008 as Patient Admin Specialist; As a drilling member, one of my duty is to attend my drill weekend every month and do the right thing wherever I go and whatever I do. Later, I transferred to Individual Ready Reserve in April 2015 to focus on my nursing school. My dream becoming a registered nurse (RN) was full filled in March 2016. Currently, Im working in critical care unit. However, I'm looking for someone who needs help on my off days. I guarantee, you can depend on me that I will do my best to take care your love ones!

$20.00/hour · Kent, WA

I became a caregiver because my grandma and grandpa took care of me when I was a newborn. I wanted to give back. I couldn't take care of them because they past on and live long distance. So, I've decided I will give care and comfort where I'm needed. I love being a caregiver listening, understanding, laughing and being patience I learn and grow with each one of them. My personal achievement is knowledge in their stage of life. My name is Judith, I have been a certified nursing assistant since 2003.
