Take care of client with dementia and is nonverbal, quadriplegic. I run his hoyer and sit to stand lifts, take care of all ADL's and overall keep him up beat mind, body and soul. I am blessed to say we went for walks (I pushed his chair) We watched birds and I learned a lot about them. We ate delicious food and I cleaned up. He napped while I cleaned house and took care of laundry. He gave me a smile and let me know in his way that I could say goodbye cowboy so I did. Kissed his hand and hugged his wife. I am amazed at how much someone can teach you that is nonverbal and doesn't stand, fully dependent but so independent. He was an amazing man!

We sang Dolly Parton loud and very, very bad. We danced even when people were watching. We gardened and ate. Cooked amazing gorgeous meals and grill cheese sandwiches. We had an incredible time and when the time came I held her hand, kissed her cheek and sang her into heaven, reminded her to dance on the way in. I truly am honored to know her and know we'll dance again.

I am a mature woman with over 25 years caring for people of all ages and walks of life. I have bachelor degrees in Family Life and Human Development and in Nursing. I was a registered nurse for 25 years. I have extensive experience in home care, and especially enjoy home care because it gives me a chance to work in an environment in which people are the most comfortable. I enjoy becoming a part of each client's life and in meeting family members and friends. I have found I have a knack for building rapport with clients. I believe in treating each client in a holistic manner, and in communicating with him/her as a person, not as the condition for which he/she is receiving services. I enjoy teaching each client about his/her condition and in focusing on health-promoting practices. My degrees fit well together, and my experience has covered a broad area of expertise.
