About Karen

Ever since I was a little kid, I love to help people. I took Medical School, but I couldn't finish it, because of our financial situation. It started when my Dad, who was my HERO, got a stroke in 1987. Me, my Mom and my sister took care of him until he passed away. As a care giver, I always treat all my clients as my own parents and grandparents. I don't want them to be treated badly. I want them to be treated with love. Being a care giver, I learned a lot from my clients too. I really enjoy all their stories. What makes me a great care giver is that I always treat my clients with love and patient, which I know I would like to be treated. And always give all of their needs.

I started in the medical field at 18, successfully as a ward clerk in Intensive and Coronary Care. I successfully worked as a ward clerk in a hospital Emergency Room for over 3 years. I have been detailed and successful for over 3O years in the financial departments at 3 Orange County hospitals, as well as doctor offices, a medical group and a surgi-center. I began caregiving in my home in 2011. I cared for an elderly gentlemen with many needs for 3 years. I found it rewarding. I have cared for two ladies with dementia/Alzheimer's as well as blindness. I am honest, trustworthy, compassionate, empathic, kind, reliable, a good listener with an excellent attendance record and driving record. My car is well maintained and safe. My clients are very satisfied with the care I provided. I have 4 very positive letters of recommendations that I can forward to you. I have a positive attitude and I can follow a recipe and known as a good cook. The thing I enjoy the most about caregiving is assisting someone in need and making a difference in their lives. I genuinely care about people. I would like to meet you and have an interview to see if we would be a good fit for each other. I live in Anaheim.

Hello my name is Helen and I just turned 29 in Nov. I have been doing in home care for almost 5 years (will be in Jan). I love my job and really get joy out of helping people every single day. I was recently working for a chiropractor part time and am also working on my Nutrition and Wellness Degree. Back in 2012 I graduated from UEI College as a Medical Assistant. I am familiar with many medications from dealing with many home care jobs over the years. I also have lots of experinced with taking blood pressure, checking blood sugar, giving insulin injections, along with a list we can discuss in person. I am interested in helping people and expanding my career by learning more and more every day.
