About Kerrieann

I am a loving, caring 35 year old female caregiver who provides outstanding compassionate care. I offer many sevices including bathing, errands, grooming, transportation, medication reminders and meal preparation. Prior to becoming a Registered Nurse, I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant working within home care, elderly retirement homes and rehab centers. It was throughout this experience I developed a passion for memory care. As an advocate for those experiencing the challenges associated with dementia, I guide my care by keeping abreast with the latest research and guidance whilst working with clients who have dementia. For example I actively promote the inclusion of healthy nutritious meals with 'brain foods' that improve memory, mood and cognition. In addition to this, I am trained in chair based exercises devised by the British Gymnastics Association and Cogntive Stimulation Therapy, both of which have been proven to improve cognitive stimulation and social interaction for those affected by dementia . Even with limited mobility these exercises and activities can have a significant impact. I am always seeking new ways to engage with people I care for to enable them to have purposeful, memorable experience whilst in my care. Please get in touch to discuss how I can meet your needs.
