About Kimberly

Caregiving comes naturally to me, I have worked with the elderly and infants as a caregiver. I am fifty one and have had a lot of life and work experience, besides education. I have worked privately and through an angency. I enjoy people thoroughly. I am currently embarking on my Master's in Gerontology. I treat each person with dignity and kindness. I do my best to be a support and actively look for ways to enhance their daily life. I am very informed in preventative health and aging issues, and not afraid to do what it takes to facilitate the persons health related needs and better their environment.

I have worked for two agencies in the past and enjoyed this thoroughly. I have worked with clients dealing with Alzheimer, dementia, health debilitating limitations as Lou Gehrig's disease and nearly every other type of age related illness. I have done all and more duties than a CNA does for many clients, besides cooking for special diets, housekeeping, med reminders, personal care, etc.

My aging mother who suffered from early-onset Alzheimer's first opened my eyes to the challenges of caring for an aging parent. I attended seminars, took courses and got my Nursing Assistant certification to care for her. I learned a lot of patience and tactics for working with the elder population. One of the joys and, I think, one of my strengths as a caregiver is providing companionship , stability and finding fun and meaning in unlikely places.
