I am a mother of six grown children. I provide kind, compassionate, professional, health care, and companionship. I care for all my clients like family. I started volunteering in nursing homes, and hospitals when I was 13. Caring for others comes natural to me.

My name is Kailee Jensen, I am 18 years old and currently a college student attending Mid Michigan in hopes of going into the nursing program this coming year. I enjoy fast pace environments, constantly learning new things and love to make people smile through every interaction. My goal is to learn new skills and advance the skills I have already learned.

Hi my name is Pricilla! I am able to help with all ADLS including dressing, bathing, medication passes. As well as rides to and from doctors appointments. I love being a caregiver. I have been a caregiver for 2 years, while the last 6 years I have been a stay at home mom of 4 kids. I love working with the elderly and I would want the same care that I give to be given to my family members.

Surprisingly enough, in caring for my mom and pastor's mom the last 18 months of their lives, I found I'm very patient with the elderly. Both women had dementia as well. Doing crafts or something creatively "fun" was enjoyable. There is SOO much need for the elderly! My heart goes out to them, especially those who don't have family or their family lives far away. I'm an extrovert who loves to laugh. It's important to find the humor in life. It's also important to help the person retain their dignity, especially if incontinent, which can be humiliating to the patient. After caring for both women, they both died within 3 months of each other. I had quit my job to care for my mom full time and home health was an easy segue back into working full time. I enjoy getting to know new people and hearing their "story" as everyone has a story. I play the piano and saxophone, and my patients always lived hearing one or the other. I'm pretty laid back and easy going.

I am compassionate and a good listener .I enjoy helping elderly people with their daily needs..I like to hear all the amazing life stories of clients ..I always put myself in the clients place to Understand their situations..And care for the client as if they were my family..

I've been assisting seniors for as long as I can remember, I began as a volunteer when I was 12 years old, I've held various positions in the Healthcare industry, Activity Director, Social Work, Administrator, but I always find myself pulled back to the hands on care, to me there isn't a more rewarding career.

I keep my CNA license up to date. I enjoy working with the elderly. I am very hard working and love to make people smile. I want my clients to feel they are independent as much as they can. I can listen to stories over and over.

I've been doing this line of work for over 20 years and have always been known to above and beyond in providing care
