About Paula

I've been a caregiver for six years with mainly long term clients. I have experience with wheelchairs and lifts, feeding tubes and oxygen systems. I'm not an expert but I successfully cared for a client with Alzheimer's for two years. I'm punctual and reliable and a good problem solver. A decent cook, I'm not too proud to ask Google for help if I'm tasked with a dish I'm not familiar with. I'm friendly and personable and have always fit in with the families I've served. I enjoy my job and take pride in my work. If you think I would be a good fit for your family I would love to work with you.

Home Health Aide

Feb 2016 - Jul 2017
Private Home
I cared for a wheelchair bound elderly gentleman along with his able-bodied wife. In addition to the daily duties of bathing, shaving, teeth brushing and toileting, my tasks included administering medications and liquid nutrition via peg tube to my client and preparing healthy meals for his wife. I also cared for their pets, ran errands, did laundry and light housekeeping, scheduled appointments and did anything that was asked of me. I also drove them almost daily to outings and appointments. I can safely operate both Hoyer and Sit-to-Stand lifts and I know my way around a wheelchair ramp.

Home Health Aide

Sep 2015 - Feb 2016
Private Home
I cared for a lovely elderly lady that used a walker to get around. I stayed by her side whenever she was up on her feet. My duties included assisting her with bathing, dressing, toileting and dispensing medication. I prepared her breakfast and snack and cleaned the kitchen after her husband (a fantastic cook!) prepared dinner. I drove her to all her medical appointments and accompanied her on her weekly hair salon visits. After awhile I even got bold and started washing, curling and styling her hair myself when she didn't feel like going to the salon. While it didn't look quite the same as her professionally done hairstyle, my client was pleased with it and that's all that mattered. I didn't have much of a housekeeping responsibility, they had a cleaning service. I made the bed, cleaned up after meals, did all the laundry and occasionally vacuumed and straightened up if company was coming.

Hello. My name is Dahny. My husband and I are parents to three boys; age 8, 10, and 12. They are great kids. Helping others have always been second nature to me. Before I had my boys, I was a foster mom to a new born baby boy. I picked him up from the hospital when he was 3 days old. I took care of him for about three months before he was adopted by a family who had adopted his brother. It was difficult letting him go but I knew he would be okay growing up with a biological brother. Shortly after my darling foster child left, I found my husband and we started our family almost right away. I spent 10 years taking care of my family. With my boys in school full time, I went back to helping others as a caregiver and I love it. I take care of everyone under my watch like my own family. I treat everyone with respect, understanding, and with kindness. I am grateful and proud that I have only had positive feedback from past clients.
