About Gretchen

Dependability is my middle name. I have been working for an assisted living facility for one year. I have never been late, called in sick or for any other reason. I have always come in early or stayed late as requested. I have passed a level 2 background check with the state of Florida, and have a CNA license, BLS certification by the American Heart Association as well as a Med Tech certifcation. As for my experience, I pass out medication, assist with personal care, showering, toileting, dressing and any other help needed. I am a great cook. I can also help with light housekeeping and laundry. I own a 2014 Toyota so I can also take the client to doctor appointments or shopping or run errands for them. I enjoy meeting new peple and I love helping in any way I can. This gives me a sense of accomplishment. I am a happy optimist and develop relationships easily. I have a great sense of humor.

I always like taking care of other people. I like helping them do thing they use to do by themselves but now become difficult to do along, cleaning, groceries shopping, doctor appointments, etc. Also I like hearing the stories of their lives and giving them comfort. I take care for everything and anything they need. I have been there unconditionally with every person I had work with and they have become like family. I'm a person who is devoted to her job. I raise 2 children, a girl and a boy, and now I live along . For almost 6 years I was the main caregiver to 89 year old lady with osteoarthritis. For four years I took care for a lady with Alzheimer's. The last 4 years I help a couple with daily routine, light housekeeping, cooking, driving. I have been caring for older people for 20 years and still enjoying doing so. I'm bilingual English and Spanish. Reference and background check at interview.
