About Robin

When I turned 60 I decided to leave the corporate world (I was a graphic designer) and start something different by helping people on a more permanent basis. I have volunteered and have always wanted to help people. I have also been a boy scout leader and organized donations. I have worked steady for the last 7 years as an aide for various agencies on Long Island, NY. I have training in TBI as well as HHA and have had clients with Dementia, Down Syndrome and Parkinson's. I have my own transportation, can cook, laundry and have a lot of patience. Being available for either the agency or patient and not getting stressed even if sometimes they are are achievements enough. I deal with both the healthcare agencies and family members and have assisted the patients to the doctors office as well as tabulating and updating their medication. I am familiar with nursing homes, feeding schedule and activities as well as assisting in their movements and range of motion exercises. I constantly are updating my skills with the agencies and are certified as an HHA and TBI aide I can work different shifts and live on the North Shore. And, by the way I am male. Just in case you were wondering about my first name. Thanks for your time.

I started job as a caregiver in 2000, when I came to the USA and was in a need to find some job for a living. But as time was going on I get involved in this business so much and loved to help people that despite the fact that my background back in my country was a technical field, I can't leave caregiver position. I feel blessed having such opportunity in my life to help and give everything of my ability to make elderly people happy.
