About Debra

I've been an in-home private caregiver off and on for 30+ years; loving our old folks comes naturally to me. I've also raised children, owned a music store, traveled to other countries (as a caregiver as well) and experienced my own trials in life. I am conscientious and respectful. I am thoughtful of family, always endeavoring to include them in happy "little" events in daily life. I am naturally cheerful, optimistic and encouraging in times of trial (medical rehab comes to mind) while also maintaining a resourceful and responsible attitude to the situation. I am honest with myself and those I work with regard to mistakes; I continue to learn and grow in my profession. Life experiences are my most valuable teachers.

Experience & Education

Home Care Provider

May 2014 - Sep 2019
Carolyn Coyne
For 3 years I assisted with activities in daily life - meals/housekeeping/personal care/social activities - anything that helped her maintain her desired lifestyle, I did that. I was responsible for meds, doctor appts and chose to apply myself to various other duties geared toward maintaining her home - gardening, sidewalk snow removal, etc. During the latter part of 2018, I was able to help through many hospital/medical rehab/skilled nursing admissions because of several falls. I have worked closely beside doctors, nurses, physical and occupational therapists, both in the professional setting as well as in the home.

I am a open minded, emphatic, and understanding individual who is reliable. I have worked in child welfare. When I left the career, I brought one of my clients home to provide him with daily living services until he graduated high school and went off to college. I was a behavioral health case manager for individuals with severe and persistent mental illnesses. I assisted them 8n the areas of housing, finances, mental health, chemical dependency and social supports. During my college years, I worked as a caregiver for Home Instead. The agency allowed our Senior Clients to remain in their home while in recovery or simply struggling with various psychological and or physical disabilities. I love most to help individuals in what area they may need assistance in. A personal achievement I am most proud of is gaining a B.A. while being a single parent.
