About Harriett

Hello, My Name is Harriett Sharp. I am 56 years old and have been working in the medical field for over 30 years. I've had the pleasure of caring for some very special people. I've enjoyed working and providing comfort, care, compassion and companionship to all of my clients. I've learned to "Listen" instead of hearing what I need in order to give my full attention to what makes them comfortable. I have the training and obtained the knowledge/experience need to provide 110% to my patients. I've learned a lot, but patience and listening are a Must. I've worked 10+ years for an agency and 20+ years in private care. (I prefer private care; this way I can establish a rapport and give the best care that is needed). There my duties varied. I am responsible for the ADL's and their daily lives, grooming (bathing, oral hygiene, dressing), preparing meals, doing errands, accompanying to DR.'s appointments, medication reminders, ROM feeding, as well as cleaning/sterilizing equipment. I have experience in the care of Trach's, and colostomy care, incontinence, wound care, catheters and the use of the Hoyer lift. I have training in care for Dementia and Alzheimer's patients as well. My duties are vast, but I continue to learn. I've enjoyed working in the field; providing respect, care, trust and comfort to all. If interested in communicating further, please feel free to call me at 415-871-1817 Thank You, Harriett E. Sharp

What a great caregiver means to me is to be able to show empathy and compassion toward the clients and families that I work with. By taking the time to fully understand my patient's needs and giving them the patience to work through their rehabilitation at their own pace, I show them that I care about them and that I want to do what I can to help them. I become a caregiver because I enjoy working with people. I love helping the individuals and their families to create the tailored care that is needed. I also enjoy working with the elderly in overcoming the difficulties associated with their health issues and helping them maintain their highest level of Activities Daily Living. The most satisfying part about being a caregiver is knowing that my clients and I foster a bond that makes me feel like a part of their family. In addition, the trust that my client's family put in me to ensure that their love ones are safe and taken care of is quite rewarding. I know how it helps the family feel at ease. One of my personally favorite achievements I'm proud of was helping one of my post-surgery clients at home with PT and OT; and enabling her to walk with a cane again instead of being restricted to a wheelchair.
