My name is Mary Fotu. I've been caregiver for 11 years which led me to do something that I love which is going to school as a CNA in 2006 which I graduated being a certified CNA. Within those 11 years I've been helping my mother and older sister out with their elders, which I have a lot of experience in. I have dealt with elders that have Alzheimer's/dementia, COPD, Disabled & Diabetic & etc. I cook, clean, lift, give baths/showers, change diapers, remind to take their medication & etc. If there's is anything that the elder needs to be done I can do it. I basically make this as my career & I take care of them as they are my own grandparents.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
