Experience & Education

Caregiver

May 2015 - Jan 2017
Private family
I started as a Caregiver and was there for these years. I would attend and at the agreed time and would get there and see how they were doing and what they needed. Usually after asserting the area and how they were feeling I would start with there lunch and diligently would take there medications 5 min after and would change the wife cloths and undergarments and would do the same for the husband and assert that he would be well and had taken his medications as well. Then after they would be done with there lunch I would pick up and clean. Leave there area clean and presentable. The Wife had dementia and the husband had cancer. The wife would also have diabetes so I would be constantly taking care of her feet. Cleaning them and changing her socks with proper care and gear.
