I was raised by my grandmother because my younger sister was born with a cleft palate. My grandmother was 70, so as a young child and a young adult being around her and all of her many friends it became normal for me. I love working with the elderly and have gained much knowledge and understanding of older people. I have worked with Hospice care, and worked with patients that have dementia and memory loss. I Have worked with wheelchair bound and stroke patients, have been very successful in rehabilitation. I recently relocated and have availability full time. I have excellent references, and would like to meet and talk with families that are looking for a supportive and loving caregiver.

Been in this line of work for almost 23 years. I'm a good strong and loyal worker, have always been told so by my bosses, as well as employees and residents. Very clean, organized and on time. I like to show up early and be the last to leave. I take my job very seriously. I've plenty of outstanding references. I do only work 24-72hr shifts. The least amount I'll work for is a 24hr shift. With this line of work I've to make sure the trip and hours...are worth my time. Thank you....Marina
