About Julie

I became a caregiver when I was eighteen years old, My boyfriend at the time was in a motorcycle wreck and broke his cervical spine (C4,5,6),resulting in quadriplegia. Married in 1983, we were determined to better my husband's circumstance. Continued Physical therapy, leg-brace walking, functional electrical stimulation therapy, handicap swimming lessons, and a new operational procedure (decompression surgery on the cervical spine with anterior/ posterior fusion). This is who I became. Today we are the proud grandparents of a beautiful baby boy. I like being a caregiver because I love people. I seem to never find myself at a loss of words in the presence of those who need my help. I am proud to be a part of what my husband and I have overcome throughout our many years together, I am a licensed CNA and a Physical therapy tech II. Having worked 4 years at a high level hospital for Hip and Knee replacement, I have experienced a very diverse cliental and have much to offer as a caregiver.

    Four years ago I retired from nursing. Recently, I moved to Phoenix Arizona to be near family. I have one married daughter in Phoenix where I presently reside, and another married daughter in Peoria. My daughter and son-in-law in Peoria have one daughter and are currently expecting their second child. Prior to moving here, my most recent pertinent work experience was as a homecare non-medical provider to an senior woman in her Kansas home. Though hired as "non-medical care provider" much of my assistance with this woman did revolve around her medical needs as she was an end-stage cancer patient, as well as diabetic. I helped manage her medication schedule, transportation and ensuring she went to medical/doctor appointments. I also monitored her daily health needs such as blood pressure, blood sugars, etc. I would like to care for you or a loved one in your home, and assist you with some of your care needs. I am willing to assist with light housekeeping, meal preparations, exercise/physical therapy programs, transportation and occasional errands or grocery shopping. I enjoy reading, baking, music, walking and spending time outdoors, as well as spending time with my family. I would be delighted to come work for you! --Freida McMahon
