Pamella H.

I am very patient with my clients, What attracted me was being able to make my own hours Taking care of people I have never being fired from a job

Compassion and empathy are my greatest attributes. I cared for my mother post massive stroke for just shy of seven years (diaper changes, washing, Hoyer Lift, feeding, medication management, advocate for her care, navigating Medicare/Medicaid and SSI/SSD, etc. I understand paralysis, stroke, speech impediment, palliative and hospice care, oxygen dependent, chronic aspiration (leading to feeding tube), to name a few examples. I have assisted for several years with respite care for the now deceased Ms. Jacqueline Schmidt. Ms. Schmidt was insulin dependent (medication management) and had Alzheimer's/Dementia and could no longer speak and was also bed bound. I have worked in the medical field for almost two decades in radiology offices and as a licensed massage therapist providing therapy for Multiple Sclerosis, Sickle Cell Anemia, edema, fibromyalgia, chronic headaches, to name a few. (Beyond these examples, references can be provided upon request) Life has directed me as a calling would a religious leader to caregiving. The Enneagram and Myers-Briggs personality outcome-I am a caregiver (ISFJ). Caring for another human is what I believe all humans were put here to do; to help each other through this journey in whatever gifts we have to offer. I enjoy others company and have a sense of true purpose by possibly providing someone a sense of freedom by assisting them and providing confidence and an easier time of the human experience. Aside from helping other humans, I have rescued over two-hundred dogs and counting. I am a foster mom for dogs and currently volunteer my time with the Humane Society. PS. I enjoy cooking too! (Of course, stick to diet-specific, if required.)
