About Leslie

I am very compassionate and caring and I like to help. I have always enjoyed working with people and caregiving seem to come naturally to me. I often offer my hand to help a stranger negotiate a step or pull a chair out for them to sit. I am also observant and try to anticipate needs, while still allowing the person to be as independent as possible. I am honest, dependable and reliable. I get a lot of satisfaction knowing I have made a difference in someone's life.

Cared for Parkinson’s /dementia client in their home. Helped with ADLs, bathing, meals, light housekeeping. In the beginning years, we played games and went for walks to help keep client sharp and mobile. Took client to doctor appointments and sometimes out for lunch. As declining persisted, client slept more and was not able to do as much for self. Toward the end, became incontinent in bladder and bowel and had to be fed. Helped with Hospice care. Client passed last week.

I have my Certified Caregiving and Certified Nurse Assistant (and PCT) License for 9 years now. I am currently working as A CNA providing care to immigrants that need to quarantine but my job there will be ending soon mid December 2023. I began gaining experience in caregiving, assisted living, rehabilitation centers and have done 3 years night shift at St.Joseph's hospital. I am now in school to receive my bachelors as a Registered Nurse. I have a passion to strive for the care and needs of others as if they are apart of my own family. I also strive to develop trust with not only the patient but the family to always ensure excellent care and respect.
