About Marlene

I am a very caring person . Always cheerful and very attentive to clients needs. I have learned hands on techniques over the years from the different places Ive worked . I started out taking care of my own grandmother and great aunt .Also my aunt was blind , when she was sick with cancer I helped take care of her and her house,bathing, and feeding medication . paying her bills shopping and medical appointments. Being a caregiver is what makes me happy . I enjoy putting a smile on peoples face and hopefully a laugh or two. Im a good cook and I have 20 yrs of experience taking care of people because I care and I enjoy my job. I treat your loved ones like they are my loved ones .

I have loved being in home healthcare for a long time. I have found my niche, per say. I am a positive but gentle personality. I can talk when needed & be quiet when needed also. I treat people in their homes exactly how they want to be treated & do what they like having done. Kinda like "Burger King," saying, "having it your way." It is your home & I try to make it be how you want it to continue to be. I am very patient & want those I care for to feel good when I am there. I do not plan on changing their care plan & what is already working unless the client or family tells me otherwise. I enjoy so many aspects of the job. I enjoy doing for the client. I enjoy cooking their meals when needed & I take my time with the client. I will do for them anything they would need me to do & make their days enjoyable. My #1 priority is client safety & feeling comfortable with me as their caregiver. I have lots of experience, I have my CNA lic here in CA also was a Medical Assistant & I am an LVN but not licensed in the state of CA. I came back to my home state in 2011 & did not take the test as I was going to do something else when I arrived back. With my caregiving experience I do not think I will get licensed out here. I have let too much time laspe, unfortunately.
