8 years Experiance in long term care, assistant living, and hospital settting. I previously worked with a 92-year-old who has Alzheimer's disease. I made sure she took her morning and night meds, showered, fed, transferred to toilet, took on walks, and did light housekeeping, and cooking. I enjoyed working with her and expanding my knowledge. I also have experience with a male patient that had MS. My duties were given medication, gtube feedings, transfers(Hoyer lift), wound care, light housekeeping, and companionship. My passion for working with the elderly is helping those in need who are unable or limited to things that they are unable to do themselves. I have a very flexible schedule.
