As a stylist for many years it has been an easy transfer to have the privilege of being a caregiver and having the opportunity to partner with my client to enhance thier golden years or their first years. I have experience with dementia, Parkinson's, neuropathy, diabetes, ms, heart failure, ulcer, phenylalanine, wheelchair bound patients, fear of shower, medicine resistance. If bed bound I like to find most comfortable positions for them, and watch for compression wounds. I have enjoyed being a care giver since high school. Part time in High school & through hair school until current as a side career. I like to get to know the person, find their favorite passions in life and help them in some way to bring a sense of pleasure back into life, (if lost) and if not then walk along side them giving dignity and care wherever needed. I have had the pleasure of making several wonderful friendships which I expect will last into eternity. I have also enjoyed providing everything from companionship with exercise to a fully bed bound friend with MS which included bedside bathing etc. My youngest friend was 102. and even younger still infants. I believe it is a gift to find the gold in each person I meet in life and bring it out.

After high school, I attended Maric college of medical careers. (medical assisting course.) After graduating, I worked in family practice as a back medical assistant. I continued my Education by taking an EMT course at Mesa College. From there I worked as an respiratory tech for a home oxygen therapy company. After starting a family, I worked as program manager for a senior congregant lunch program. I relocated from Ocean Beach to Oceanside and have been working as an independent contractor on several different cases. I love the work I do and I'm good at it. I'm reliable, dependable, trustworthy, outgoing and friendly. I have reliable transportation with a good driving record and can easily pass a background check. I don't drink smoke or do drugs... I hope you will consider me in your search for the perfect fit for your family needs. Thank you and have a happy day every day! Tammy *

What makes me a great caregiver is I really appreciate and love the work that I do for the seniors and I take great pride in my work and do what ever it takes to get the job done. I'm loving,caring,compassionate,empathetic,a great listener and communicate very well also I'm very strong for a female and that gives me the ability to do transfers very well.I'm a great cook and I enjoy cleaning and gardening . I became a caregiver after caring for my own grandmother that had Alzheimer's and cancer. Since she passed away I wanted to know more about what she died from so I could help others and be knowledgeable about it. One of my accomplishments that I am proud of is graduating top of my Nursing assistant class after doing it twice because I was determined . I give them all the respect, honor and dignity that they deserve to keep living the best quality of life that they can because they have earned it. And I really appreciate you taking the time to consider me as someone whom you can trust and depend on to take care of your love one. Thank You very much.

I became a caregiver because I have a passion for working with elderly. I enjoy spending the time getting to know my clients individually. I have learned so much and continue to grow with the help and knowledge of the people I work with. I have completed school (educated myself ) while following the direction of the people I work with; their ambition and conversation has helped me achieve so much. I am a very compassionate, strong, empathetic, punctual and hard working individual. I love what I do! I make every effort showing that love by providing the care you deserve and pay for. I am experienced in all ADL's including Alzheimer's and Dementia care. I've worked in assisted living and in home care for over 11 years. I have an current Tb test, CPR and first aid trained and certified.

I am a great caregiver for multiple situations because of my well rounded background. I have great abilities as a healthcare provider and homemaker. Those talents range from cooking nutritional, diet tailored meals, cleaning, campanionship, personal care, monitoring medications, and transportation assistance. I became a caregiver/registered CNA after assisting my father and grandmother during their illnesses which I found very fulfilling. During the past year it has been rewarding serving so many diverse clients. I have enjoyed it immensely. I am proud to share one of satisfying achievements recently. After sugery my client came home to recover. She had multiple needs ranging from nutritional, wound care, housekeeping, pet care, food shopping and more. Not only was she over the moon with everything I was able to do for her, her doctors were very happy with her progress and wound care.
