    Friends say I am compassionate, nurturing, empathetic and a caring person. My fiance is in an Alzheimer's care facility now. I comfort him with laughter, music and touch. I love this work because it isn't work. Let me help you lengthen your loved one's stay at home for as long as we can; keeping them safe. You, as a caregiver also, need to take time for yourself. Comfort, companionship and safety are my main focus. I am an intelligent, artistic, clean, patient and kind caregiver. I pay attention to details, like medication and dietary needs. I prefer to redirect a client than argue with them. I will need to keep communication open with you. I like to keep the patient engaged and keep them involved in daily activities. I've been told I have a gift for this type of care. I've had three years experience with Alzheimer's Disease, Picks and Lewy Body dementia. I am open to negotiating compensation.
