About Amber

Hello! My name is Amber Wang. I'm 27 years old. I got my start in caregiving at just 13 years old when I began helping my grandmother care of my great uncle who had severe Down's Syndrome. He required catheter care, cleaning of his tracheostomy, feeding, bathing, transferring, etc. As my grandmother aged I helped with meal prep, medication reminders, giving her insulin shots as well as helping with oxygen as she also has COPD. I also have experience with Dementia and blindness due to cataracts and Macular degeneration. I believe I'd be a great caregiver to your loved ones as I would care for them as I have my own with love and compassion. More about me... I changed careers from teaching to caregiving/nursing. I just wanted to do more. I'm also a mother and a nursing student!
