About Christina

I became a caregiver because I enjoy people and have compassion for the elderly but also I feel what's sometimes left out is giving them their dignity. I like making people laugh. I love the stories they tell about their childhood's..their a history book in a sense. I enjoy keeping them interested in conversation as well as listening to them. A personal achievement I'm proud of is if it wasn't for my divorce (unfortunately) I never would have known the families I've touched by caring for their parents and that makes me feel very proud. About me,Hmm. I'm caring, reliable, commitment is a big one, great sense of humor I'm told, respectful and responsible. I raised four children and have three beautiful grand kids. Originally from Ma. but in RI. for twenty four years. People person.

I have been caring for seniors for over 18 years. I am patient, mature and caring. I treat my clients like family. I enjoy hearing their stories and keeping them engaged. I also feel that hygiene is a big part of keeping seniors well and happy. Showering, getting hair done and dressing neatly makes a big difference in how a person feels about themselves. Letting them know that they are important and treating them with respect is an important part of my job. I do all the other things as well, such as taking to the Dr., running errands, going out to lunch and keeping their home neat. Once I know my clients ability I chat with them about what they would like to do and we take it from there..
