About Karin

I love people. I love to make a difference in someone's life. I'm caring, compassionate, punctual, great cook,I love to be upbeat and put a smile on my clients face. For three years I set my alarm for every two hours to turn my last client to check her erratic blood sugar and turn her from side to side to help prevent bed sores and change diapers if necessary. I'm not afraid of hard work. I'm very good with people with Alzheimer's and know how to treat my client with respect and dignity

I have taken a few years off to help take care of my mother. Prior to that I was a caregiver to a woman in Sacramento for three years. I lived in and was on duty 24/7. She died at 97. She had severe medical issues. Alzheimer's, etc. dealt with catheters, c diff, diapers, bathing, lifting, meals, etc. I'm ready to get back to the work I love as a caregiver. 15 years prior I cared for another lady in Greenbrae also for three years. She also needed the same level of care as my most recent lady. Alzheimer's, etc. Thank you for your consideration

Hello my name is Luseane but I go by Lucy when i'm working. I am a single mother and I have been caregiver for over 30 years now. I came to the United States, started a family and have been in this field to provide for them. Caregiving began as just a job and turned into something more, Its a career that I really enjoy. I love taking care of my clients and treating them with respect and love as if they were my own family. I believe I am a great caregiver because I have what it takes all around to give great care. I can cook, i'm neat and organized. I believe I genuinely make my clients feel important and care for them as I would my own father/mother or grand parents. Also I enjoy playing the guitar and singing for my clients. I believe that loving what I do only brings a sense of joy to my clients every day. It is important that everyone young and old deserves to be taken care of to the best of my abilities. If I happen to come across something new that I know little about, believe me I will do my best to educate myself and give the best service that I can possibly give.
