Hi. My name is Kristi. My recent experience I was taking care of an elderly man in is home while his wife got a break for a few hours a week. He was mobile and we went for walks and I sat and gave him company. Soon he became bed ridden and I fed him, helped bath him, assisted with medications, etc. I currently take care of a 90 year woman whom I take to her doctor appointments, groceries, help with her bills, etc. She does suffer from dementia so I do have experience with caring for individuals with memory loss. My greatest care job was for my dad who had Alzheimer's for many years (10) and in his last year and a half he was bed ridden in my parents home here in Encinitas. I helped everyday with his care, met with nurses and hospice for over a year and a half so I have lots of experience with the healthcare system. I feel very blessed that I was able to be by his side and to help my mom. I have a very caring heart and want to give back. I am reliable, honest, and have many references of people who have known me for years. I look forward to meeting you and your loved one! Thank you Kristi
