About Werner

I'm a excellent care-giver, as well as a student & tutor. I've worked in hospitals, skilled-nursing facilities, assisted-living communities and home-care. I prefer home-care for the chance to spend more quality time with my client/patient but often times I still work at more institutional facilities (partially due to having access to health care benefits). I have numerous references from professional, personal & business contacts, educational associates, and loved ones readily available. I've been in the field over a decade in capacities such as: care-giver, med. tech., nursing unit coordinator and behavioral health technician. I'm currently finishing my Bachelors of Health Sciences with an Emphasis on End of Life Care. I've had substantial experience with Hospice, Alzheirmer's, dementia, behavioral issues, as well as many various physical needs. My domestic abilities both at work and home are excellent.

George Lasica and family
Caregiving for a gentleman with end-stage Multiple Sclerosis. I also helped him run his home-based business HANDIVANS AZ, a rental service for wheel-chair accessible minivans. After one month of employment this client asked me to do a live-in situation, as he was on hospice care. I was with him until he passed six months later. He had mulitple physical complications due to the MS, but the time we shared was wonderful.
