About Jaleesa

I am very passionate about working with and being to help the elderly live life to their fullest potential. I enjoy conversing about everything and anything and I have a great sense of humor. I enjoy meeting new people and creating new experiences. I love reading and listening a variety of music as well. I take pride in being able to provide a service to the elderly community. I enjoy going on outings and just walking and talking. I love to cook and love learning new things in the kitchen. I am very empathetic to others. I love learning about history. I enjoy board games. I have experience working with the Intellectually Disabled community, so I'm no stranger to mental illnesses and behaviors. I have also worked with Medical Transportation . I volunteered as teenager in several different nursing homes in the Richmond area. I come from a long line of caregivers and nursing, so caring for others is basically apart of who I am as a person. I am CPR, AED and First Aide certified, I have also taken a medication aide course with a previous employer. I am experienced with using Hoyer lifts and gait belts. I am also a very good house cleaner as I've held several jobs in the cleaning business over the years. I am an Certified Cosmetologist, so I'm no stranger to grooming, or tidying up hair a bit, and would actually enjoy doing so.
