About Kareyjean

1) To contribute to the care of others by helping those in need. It helped me with my Social Work career. 2) The ability to see my clients/patients smile after I have assisted them with their need/issue. 3) Understanding that the physical limitations of humans are just as challenging as their cognitive issues. 4) I look at the person as a whole individual and not as someone who has issues. I try to relate to them by listening to them as well as observing their behavior.

    Im new to Florida I moved here in the end of July 2014 I believe in taking care of those who cannot do so themselves. I have achieved alot in my years from hospice care to critical care .Im a 57 year old male who did hospices from 1985 thru 2020. I obtained my lna license in NH in 2007 and received my license here in Aug 2014 I love what I do and believe home is MUCH better then a rehab or nursing facility its one on one rather then sharing with 15 others. I have received several awards for doing my job as well as i have many references that are available upon request. My last clients were24/7 both husband and wife he passed Jan 2017 and she passed oct 2019 just shy of 90 years old.I did not work in 2020 but resumed with a client in 2021 with end stage Alzheimer's which he just passed feb 8,2022. I have incredible references hope to hear from you soon.
