About Nicholas

My name is Nicholas Covacevich. I live in the Los Angeles area and have worked in this area and in Ventura, Santa Barbara, and adjacent cities. I graduated the CNA/HHA course back in 1994 and have about 20 years of experience with excellent references. I love doing this kind of employment because it is very rewarding for me to help someone maintain independence in their home and to know that my care allows them to live a quality life.

live-in caregiver full-time

Lois and Oscar Krumrei
I took care of an elderly man who had diabetes, stroke, and both legs amputated. I transfered him onto his wheelchair, into bed, onto the shower chair, and in and out of his car. I cooked, light housekeeping, changed his dressings, did toileting, personal care, shopping, helping his wife, medication reminders, took him for rides, positioning, and took them to their medical appointments.
