Malia T.

I'm 54 years old and love to help people

Caregiver Experience: In the past 16 years I've been both a live-in and live-out caregiver, companion and personal assistant for multiple clients. I've assisted with daily living activities, companionship, meals, transportation and medications reminders. a) I helped a friend take care of her mother for 3 months while she was under the care of Hospice. I monitored her insulin shots and medications. b) I've been a part of four end-of-life transitions while working with Hospice. c) I helped my sister during her recovery after a kidney transplant. d) I helped both my mother and a friend with their rehabilitation exercises and recoveries after having had strokes. - Special Interest/Skill: Listening, Problem Solver - Background: 20+ years as an application programmer. - Other: If you're aware of the Myers-Briggs type indicator (MBTI); I'm an INFP (Introvert; Intuition; Feeling; Perception) I've had a life long interest in communication and have participated in numerous workshops and classes in communication. It's been my experience that this allows me to communicate more effectively with other communication styles.
