About Rebecca

I have had the joy and pleasure of caring for the elderly for over 21 years. I have a vast experience in working with all types of challenging diagnosis. I believe that no one, should be defined by diagnosis, age, disease or challenges that doctors or society has labeled them with! I have extensive experience working with Dementia, Alzheimer's, Stroke, Neurological disorders, Arthritis, COPD, Cardiac, Orthopedics, Amputations,etc As a Licensed and Certified Occupational Therapy Assistant, I am able to not only provide excellent care as a private caregiver, but also to incorporate my therapeutic skills. Ie. , Range of motion, exercise,proper transfers, positioning techniques, mobility tasks, strengthening activities,etc. My background as a therapist also enables me to recognize any problem areas and be able to assist the client in these areas. My goal is to help clients achieve the best quality of life possible. I will provide customized solutions, specific techniques and strategies to meet the diverse needs of the client and family members. My mission is to provide security and peace of mind for the client as well their loved ones. Everyone that I work with receives respect, dignity, compassion, and my undivided attention.

I always like taking care of other people. I like helping them do thing they use to do by themselves but now become difficult to do along, cleaning, groceries shopping, doctor appointments, etc. Also I like hearing the stories of their lives and giving them comfort. I take care for everything and anything they need. I have been there unconditionally with every person I had work with and they have become like family. I'm a person who is devoted to her job. I raise 2 children, a girl and a boy, and now I live along . For almost 6 years I was the main caregiver to 89 year old lady with osteoarthritis. For four years I took care for a lady with Alzheimer's. The last 4 years I help a couple with daily routine, light housekeeping, cooking, driving. I have been caring for older people for 20 years and still enjoying doing so. I'm bilingual English and Spanish. Reference and background check at interview.
