56 caregivers with Cancer Recovery experience found near Collinsville
Following rigorous cancer treatment, individuals and caregivers must fully commit to health restoration. While recovering from the disease, elders will likely experience fatigue, pain, swelling, dental problems, nausea, weight changes, or bowel and bladder issues as the aftermath of chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Due to the fragility of seniors’ health, caregivers are especially attentive towards their individuals’ needs and wellness changes over time. Maintaining everyday household responsibilities such as cleaning, cooking and laundry; providing a healthy and low-fat diet; calming exercise; follow-up care with doctors and symptom monitoring are all important aspects of caring for cancer survivors.

I am a register nurse and I retired in May 2014 when I moved from Reno, Nv. to Mckinney, Tx. After a year of retirement I missed nursing and the one on one contact with patients but did not wish to return to the shift work, overtime, week-ends etc, so I tried caregiving and loved it. I graduated from nursing school in 1966 and work steadily until 2014. I have worked in the areas of neurosurgical intensive care, renal dialysis, home health, psychiatry, alcohol and drug abuse. My last place of employment was the Washoe Co Jail in Reno, Nv where i worked for over 11 years as a psychiatric nurse.
I am independent and self starting with a great work ethic. I approach each client as a unique individual with unique needs and desires and I encourage them to let me know what those are. I am patient and nonjudgemental.
I like building a relationship of trust and rapport with my clients. I like the satisfaction of helping them to enjoy the highest level of health and wellbeing as possible.
When I worked for United Health Care I was chosen as employee of the quarter.
