About Resa

Hi, I am caring, outgoing, responsible and a good friend. My name is Resa. I live in the Oakland Bay Area. I have been in the Care Companion/Activities Coordinator role for the past 15 years! I am originally from Chicago and moved here in 1979. I consider myself an experienced Care Companion and Activity Planner. I do not do medical care! I do all kinds of companion care including: Transportation, light meal planning, light housekeeping, keep my clients company, shopping and take to theater music and concerts! I became interested in being a care companion while overseeing my Mother's care in an assisted living community. I felt that the activities and caring for the residents is what I really wanted to do. I have been doing that ever since. I love working with the residents or clients and love working with them and getting to know them. I enjoy helping them to succeed in whatever path they are on. I find working with them and helping enjoy their day just wonderful.

$25.00/hour · Oakland, CA

I'm currently 24. I graduated 2017 from a music/business college in Pasadena ca. I have my Associates degree now. I'm currently have a cleaning business and I also am a caretaker for children including my twin sisters whom have autism. I love helping people and serving my community, especially people who are elderly, less fortunate, or disabled, that's definitely one of my passions! My mom has an agency for adults who are disabled and she has been doing this since before I was born. I learned from a very young age how to take care of people who are mentally or physically I'll, or disabled by certain experiences I've had with her clients. I also helped take care of my grandma years ago up until she passed from cancer. Shortly after when my grandpa was sick I took care of him up until I left for college. When I graduated college he got sicker, So I back in Oakland take care of him and unfortunately he is niw deceased. I also took care of my mom while she was battling cancer and she passed a few years ago, she was my grandpa's original caretaker but I took over after she passed. One of the best achievements I'm proud of is saving my grandpas life by changing his diet and staying on top of his meds, he almost passed in December of 2017, he did a whole he did a whole 180. The doctors gave him a certain amount of time to live but he did surpass it. He wasn't walking or talking, and being tube fed. His conditions were diabetes and congestive heart failure, but my sister and I did research on his condition, hired him changed his got him in physical, and speech therapy. He eventually was able to stop the tube feedings and eat regular food. Since I know a lot about health and certain health conditions that others might not know about I like to share my knowledge and help save lives the best I can. Some of my dreams are to own multiple businesses serving the community and to be a singer.
