I am registered with In Home Support Services in Riverside, and Orange County as a registered Caregiver with the State of California I have passed background and fingerprint checks needed. I can and will submit to these if they are required for employment. I have been a live in and a live out caregiver for the last 5 years. But I am also a Mom of a 24 year old daughter so I feel as though I have been a Caregiver for 24 years. I love people, and I love my job. I enjoy it. My last position was for a lady who was blind, a insulin diabetic, and a dialysis patient. When I got to her her grandaughter had been caring for her and was in way over her head. The State stepped in and said she had to go. Her son who is a Federal Agent with the FBI is willling to give me a job reference. I had the odds stacked against me from the start. Well I took those odds and smashed them and that sweet lady the care that she deserved with respect and dignity untill her death recently. I know I made a differnce and it matters.
