I was a full time caregiver for a Polio survivor and ventilator user.I was a caregiver for a home care facility. I was a live-in caregiver as well. I have worked with elderly people with dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's disease, Down's syndrome, and immobility. I'm very friendly, kind, and patient. I enjoy helping others and making life easier for them. I am able to do light housework and meal preparation as well. I am CNA and CPR certified, and I also have my First Aid certification and care-giving. I can work more than 40 hours, weekends, and overnight stays. I have many certificates including orientation and safety training, long term worker dementia specialty training, Core Basic Training, CarePro Course, 75 hours of DSHS Approved Long Term Care Worker Training, Long Term Worker Mental Health Specialty Training, and a few more.
