About Dimitra

Hello my name is Dimitra Peroulas, and I am very interested becoming a caregiver for your loved one. I have been a caregiver for 14 years. I first began this line of work when my mother began to show signs of dementia. Since then, I have worked with clients who have had Alzheimer's, mobility problems, Parkinson's, UTI's, and other serious ailments. Today, I am a certified caregiver by Abcor and I have experience in bathing, dressing, cleaning, cooking, feeding, and managing medication. My main goal is to show compassionate care in order to not only make my clients feel comfortable and safe, but to also help them work towards a better state of health. Please feel free to call me at (708) 691-9026 if you have any questions. Thank you!

Being patient,loving, caring, compassionate, and highly experienced make me a good caregiver. This is what I have been doing before I came to this country. Out of 6 siblings, I was the only one taking care of my Mom with the assistance of my daughter who is now a medical doctor and now in the university pursuing her masters degree in public health here in the U.S. I feel so much comfortable taking of people either young or old. It is my joy to contribute positively to general care of elderly people. I personally relate very well with my client and their families, that most of them treat me like members of their families. I still have contact with most of the families I have worked for. They sometimes take me out for my birthdays celebrations , some calls on my birthdays, some sends messages on my birthdays. I think this a great achievement, because if I did not do good jobs for them, they will not remember me to give me such wonderful honors.
