About Julie

I earned my CNA license in High school and worked in geriatrics from 2002-2012. I had two girls and stayed home with them, and now I'm hoping to work in health care again. I am knowledgeable in the medical field and have excellent bedside manor. I am calm and can respond to a medical emergency without panic. I have cared for hundreds of people in the skilled nursing facilities I've worked in. I have also given in home care for an elderly couple and for my friend's grandmother. I love caring for elderly people and younger people with debilitating diseases. I love hearing stories of their life. The most notable one was a holocaust survivor. I care about the people I care for and like to be a part of their life. The achievement I'm most proud of was healing a terrible, stage four decubitus ulcer, that went all the way to the resident's bone. I can say, happily, that we were able to rehabilitate many people so they could go home.

I have many years of elderly care as I started at the age of 18 caring for my disabled grandma who had a stroke and left her disabled on her left side. From there my interest grew and knew I enjoyed the service I was giving. I've helped with daily errands to complete bed care. I look forward to hearing from you.
