About Candace

I am a very compassionate, patient, reliable and loving person who very much enjoys caring for the elderly. I have over 13 years experience. I am CPR/first aid certified. I have a very flexible schedule and reliable vehicle. My recent job ended due to my client passing away, I worked for her and her family for over 3 years. I have had lots of experience with many areas of care. I'm very caring and patient with all of my client's and I advocate for them as needed. I have CNA experience and worked in the hospital for 13 years. I have experience with bathing, dressing, toileting, cooking, feeding, exercise, cleaning, appointments, companionship, incontience and medication help. My email is troybasil5@yahoo.com and I have a fingerprint card that I received from the state of AZ which is a extensive background check so that's why I didn't pay for another background check for carelinx. I can bring to interview or send you a copy and I have many references and recommendations from several client's families.

You may be thinking $22 an hour is a lot to ask, but I guarantee I am worth every penny, and more. I am happy to provide references. Caregiving is in my blood. I am respectful, patient, understanding, compassionate and caring. I smile a lot and possess a great sense of humor. I have over 20 years of caregiving experience. I already have other clients, so may not be available every day, however I would be awesome as a fill in. Please note: I am insanely healthy, so have no reason to get vaccinated.

I spent years as a Caregiver /Companion to friends, family and friends of family. Your home is your personal space. It's a place where you are most comfortable and secure. When I come in, I offer both Caregiving skills and Companionship. I respect your homes comfort zone and you. I listen and ask questions as I learn my Clients habits and needs. I have a happy heart, I am kind, friendly, patient and professional. I may offer better ways of getting care needs met but always at your approval. I am not bossy and I do not take over your home. I am also careful to put things back in their place when done with it, unless the Client states otherwise. I can assist with medications, personal hygiene care, light housework, grocery shopping, transportation, and more. Sometimes I just come in to assist family members needing a little break from their Caregiving for their family member so they can revive themselves too. I've worked in pallative care with some clients also and interacted with family members needing emotional support with their loved one adjusting to end of life issues and worked with Hospice teams like Casa de La Luz and Corondelet who are my favorites in Compassionate Hospice Care. I enjoy nature, photography and music. I am a person of Faith and I live out of my heart for others. I learn all I can regarding each individuals needs and enjoy seeing my Clients laugh and smile. A happy heart is very important! Most of all I Care! I was in a commercial for Visiting Angels 11/2015 and also did a multimedia interview (nationwide) with Channel 13 News regarding not forgetting our elderly during the Holidays and creating a Holiday box of new memories.
