I have a deep satisfaction knowing I can help someone who is in need of care. Personally knowing the feeling of being helpless, due to surgeries of my own, which temporarily left me in the care of others, and the need for assistance in day to day living can be quite overwhelming. I believe that if a patient is allowed to remain in their home with assistance, it is mentally and physically better for the patient. My experience is taking care of several family members with illness such as testicular cancer, joint replacement, stroke, back injury, and leg amputation, which led me to go to school and get my license. Since getting my license I have cared for the blind, cancer patients, home and facility elderly My experience is as follows: Administering Medications Wound Care Personal Hygiene Elimination Exercise OT/PT education Transferring Companionship Shopping Nutrition/Meals Paying Bills Dr Appointment Transportation Laundry Housekeeping I am an honest, reliable, caring individual who takes pride in my work! I love to go for drives, gardening, cooking, crafts, movies, or just sit and talk.
