About Frances

My client families describe me as having positive optimistic outlook, with a big smile and sunny disposition. They also describe me as patient and kind and good at problem solving. My clients with dementia were always happy to see me -recognizing me as a friend even when they resisted the help of others . I am attracted to care giving as a way to stay active while working and contribute to a person's quality of life. My greatest reward is my clients smile and knowing that I have helped make that happen.

Companion care

Oct 2019 - Apr 2022
Private Caregiver for elderly client
I take my client on outings and am on hand while she showers. I prepare her one to two meals during my 4 hour shift and clean up the kitchen. I water plants and do laundry as needed. I have taken her to swim in her pool, to the grocery and other stores, to doctors appointments, to bible study, to the library, to restaurants, kite flying, visiting her friends, to the beach and pier, and to functions for various groups she belongs to, as well as, walks in the neighborhood (she uses a walker).

Companion Care

Oct 2017 - Oct 2018
Private Caregiver for elderly client with dementia
I visited my elderly client in a memory care facility to give her one on one attention. We played dominoes and I brought her to the weekly church service at the facility. I set up art projects to do with her. We did puzzles and went for walks (she was wheelchair bound) around the outside grounds of the facility. I also monitored the activities of the facility and went there to accompany her to ones I knew she would enjoy. I also brought her to her hair appointments at the facility. For many of the activities I would arrive early with coffee and donuts to get her out of bed, get her dressed and to the events or appointments on time. I would report items she needed and any concerns to the family.

Private caregiver to client with dementia
I accompanied my client to restaurants, concerts, car shows and other venues giving his daughter much needed respite time. Through talking with him I was able to determine what activities he might enjoy and would be appropriate for him. We had fun together.
