About Victoria

Hi, my name is Victoria and I am interested in being a caregiver. I recently graduated from Loyola University of Chicago with a Bachelor's of Science in Nursing. I have been a private caregiver for an elderly client with Alzheimer's disease since August 2015. However, he is being moved to a memory care facility and I wish to continue working as a private caregiver. I am passionate about caring for others because I find fulfillment in helping others.

Hello there, Here is a little bit about myself. My name is Lana and I have been passionate about nursing and taking care of others since I was 7 years old. Growing up, I had a sick mother who has always been under medical care and it is since then I had an opportunity to be in contact with doctors and learn much about the healthcare field. I graduated with a nursing diploma over 20 years ago, and have been taking care of a wide arrange of senior citizens for 11 years in Chicagoland area. My most experience is live-in and live-out senior care of elderly with diabetes, dementia, Alzheimer's, etc. I am dependable and flexible provider of physical and emotional care to the elderly. Please review the list of services I provide and do not hesitate to ask questions. I have my own vehicle and a valid IL Driver's license, clean driving record and background check. I would bring references to an interview. Please contact me if you think I would fit for the job. Warm regards, -Lana
