I've been a caregiver for 5 years. Registered with the state, CPR, TB tested and have been quarantined, except for store. I just recently had cared for a 94 year old woman who had dementia, some health issues as diabetes and I did her shopping, prepared three meals a day, took her to doctor appointment, handled her medication, light housekeeping, and laundry, took care of her pet dog,, feeding and walking, and love, kept her dog after she passed away. I have reference letters from the family.
