Hi! I'm Samantha! I love being a caregiver because it gives me purpose and allows me to help others and be of service while making a living. I currently work in a memory care facility in Sacramento, CA and will be moving to Seattle WA in March or early April! I have been at this facility since April 2015 and before that I was a private caregiver in 2 homes for a little over 2 years total. I take care of 11-15 patients a day depending on staffing, so I am a great multitasker! I am extremely experienced with all types and stages of dementia (including Alzheimer's) from mild cognitive impairment to highly advanced cases. I have a passion for elderly people and truly love building new friendships and bonds with my patients as well as their families. I look forward to bringing my skills and my knowledge into the homes of those who need it, and making both the patient and the loved ones more comfortable for those hours that can't be spent together. I hope to hear from you soon!
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
