I offer full service personal care to include everything from medication management to bathing /grooming, as well as, ensuring the housekeeping and laundry are tidy and that we are timely for appointments or social events. Communication is very important and goals are tracked and recorded in daily care notes so the family is always up to date.

$20.00/hour · Key West, FL
Hello my name is Lora, I work out of Cape Coral and Key West FL. I decided to be a caregiver for the elderly initially to make extra money on the weekends. I worked for an agency and I was very good at my job. I now do this work full time. I had a home daycare for 12 years and really enjoyed helping children thrive in the beginning of their life it was very satisfying. I feel the same satisfaction when I help elderly people to be happy and comfortable and cared for. (One of my References) Lora was my mother's caregiver for a couple years. As my mother aged and became progressively worse, there were only a couple of the caregivers that she actually liked. Lora was definitely one of them. Mom would look forward to her visits because Lora would give her a nighttime shower, which was not an easy task. Lora never complained and always had a smile on her face. she also had a certain calmness about her that kept my mom calm and feel safe at all times. She was very organized, exceedingly knowledgeable and punctual. Sometimes I would stop in after work and notice the two of them laughing and talking in the other room. Lora has a way of making people feel comfortable, and she is easy to talk to, it seems she genuinely loves people. She is very gentle, patient and caring with people as well. I would highly recommend Lora Mims as a caregiver. She is trustworthy and honest but most of all, she has a big heart and I feel she truly loved my mom and my mom loved her. Sincerely, Cheryl Johnson You can find another reference under work (Glen) Thank you for your consideration and I hope to be hearing from you. I'm willing to travel for the right position. Thank you.
