About Barbara

I feel that it is meaningful work, I want to help others as much as possible. I am good at managing tasks and details, tracking them and following up, also finding practical solutions to issues that may arise. I keep an eye out for any extra thing I can find to contribute to my client's well being and happiness. I really enjoy getting to know people and like the perspectives of older people and learning from them, hearing their stories and secrets for happiness and success. They ask for achievement on the site. I am proud of learning how to do my job well and for working on my own personal growth. When I took the national teacher's board exam which usually took 2 to 3 tries, I got all in the mid ninety percentiles on my first try.

Caregiver

Victor Hsi
Care for Victor's 102 year old mother with dementia, almost blind and almost deaf. Complicated situation in many ways, not the least of which because by the end of that time she needed 24 hour care but there were no convalescent care beds due to covid. Ihss could not allocate more hours, so I split my hours to be first thing in the morning, all afternoon, and late night to give here the most monitoring and care possible in the situation. I have many other excellent references that may not fit on the website.

I am a mother of 3. Caring for others has ALWAYS been in my soul. I cared for my grandparents as a child just trying to help and be around them. I have been a care giver since I was 15 I love working with the elderly or even the young who just need some help. I am reliable, compassionate and understanding. I enjoy being with someone and knowing I am making it easier for them in what can be the last years of their life. I learn to care for your family members how they want and need and grow to love them like my own! I love to cook and championship is my favorite. My job is done when I know I have made my client feel safe, protected, loved and cared for how they want and deserve to be treated.

I become a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of elderlies. It is satisfying to see them happy and enjoying life with the loving care I give. I like to bring change to a family - a change that sees improvement from the day I first arrive. I had been a Caregiver for the last 11 years and had worked privately as well as through agencies. Have worked in private homes, facilities and retirement centers. I had cared for clients with different backgrounds and cases of Alzheimer/dementia the most.
