About Desiree

When I was 18 years old I decided to change my career path to Nursing. At the time I was a editor at Nielsens. That decision changed my life in so many ways. I take pride in my intention to multi task and I am a very observant individual. I pick up on routines and preferences within a week. You want a caregiver you can relate to, one with a great attitude for life that can come into your home and brighten up your day...and that is ME! I am a great team player and one with common sense and a sense of humor! The longevity with my previous clientele illustrates such. I am intelligent and attentive! Dr. Appointments deserve note taking and follow thru and follow up. I can and will coordinate all encompassing needs for your loved one, should you need me to. The Best part of being a caregiver for me is seeing my clients have the desire to thrive again and something to look forward to! I have a clean level 2 background check and I am drug and alcohol free . Feel free to send me a message If you have any questions or to schedule an interview! message me on Carelinx.com.

After rehabilitating in a facility, I was aquired to assist this individual in every day living skills. As the years went on my duties and responsibilities increased as did her need to have a caregiver. From simple things like running over to open a jar to assisting with getting dressed everyday, I was available to, and reliable and for her.
