About Heather

Hello my name is Heather I am 29 years old , I have lived with a stroke patient at home for the past 7 years and I also was doing in home care for 3 years with another stroke patient who passed away. Pay is negotiable. Only 15 an hour for part time or little hours , I have no problem submitting a background check but due to being out of work so suddenly I cannot afford the 20 dollars at the moment for one , if you could possibly help me out with one and take it off of my paycheck I will gladly submit one! I chose this job because I like to make people feel happy , comfortable and not lonely. It makes me feel 10x better about myself when helping others. I like to make people smile and I have a very relaxing sweet personality

I became interested in care giving because my Mom was in an automobile accident which left her paralyzed & my sister-in-law was in an automobile accident which left her with a brain injury. I was my mom's caregiver from age 17 until I was married at age 22. While living in Greenwood, IN, I worked for Companion Care as a cargiver. My Mom moved in with us in 2010, I took care of her until she passed in 2016. I enjoy helping people to be able to live at home without having to live in a nursing home. I prefer not to bath & dress, I helped my mom with bathing & dressing, however it was something I did because it needed to be done, I was never comfortable with this part of her care. If I get to know the person and they need help every once in awhile, I will do anything to help them. I was with 2 of my clients in Greenwood, IN until they passed away, I prefer the one on one attention I can give when working with an individual in their home.
