I'm compassionate. I'll treat your family member as my own. Interacting with people and engaging the mind. Safety is #1 priority. Getting clients to interact socially is a great achievement especially when dementia robs you of so much (the entire family) I've had patience with one client when presented with the same questions over and over thru out the day. I love animals, to read and to just put a smile on the face of another is an incredible feeling. I'm currently enrolled in classes for PCT. I'll have certifications in HHA/CNA /HIV/CPR(renewal). I have the experience and references and soon the certifications to go with it. ADL, medication mgmt, bathing, housekeeping, pet care, meal prep, shopping, dr appointments...Sundowning & combative experience.
