I am a caring, certified caregiver with 5+ years of experience in senior care. I experience great satisfaction from helping others. I provided general attention to clients' non-medical needs in accordance with an established Plan of Care. I provided companionship for the clients including but not limited to: talking and listening, reading aloud, social and emotional support. I promoted the clients' mental alertness through involvement in activities of interest. I provided light housekeeping tasks including laundering of clients' garments and linens. I prepared and served meals as directed. I assisted clients in completing necessary phone calls, e-mail writing, etc. I accompanied clients on walks, community trips, doctor appointments, bank, beauty salons, etc. I checked mail, ran errands, including grocery shopping and picking up dry cleaning. I reminded clients to take self-administered medications. I observed and reported any changes in the clients' mental, physical, and/or emotional condition to immediate supervisor in a timely manner.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
