About Sandra

My name is Sandra Lee, I'm 64 years old. I have a outgoing personality, I'm an encourager, I love to read books, watch old movies, attend bible study and church services, visiting the elderly in Hospitals, Nursing Homes, there Homes, and other facilities; praying with and for them, giving token gifts. I have cared for my disabled daughter since birth (July 15, 1986, until her death on December 15, 2020). I also assist my sister in caring for my disabled mother who's 84 years soon to be 85 on December 2. I enjoy listening to the elderly adults talk about their family and friends, personal hygiene, cleaning, and interacting with the clients. My personal achievement is being an Ordained Elder and now looking to provide care for elderly adults (21 and older) in my home own through Day and Respite, starting January 2022. The Day Care Days would be three days a week (M/W/F - 7am-5pm or 8am-6pm) and the Respite Care would be a three day weekend (Fri.-Sun); Five days (M-F); Seven days (M-Sun); or Thirty (30) days. Respite would be provided every other week (Example: 1st and 3rd or (2nd and 4th), except for 30 days. Since my daughter passed away, I would like to work from my home and provide these services. I could only do 3 persons per day care days, and 2 persons per respite care. Prefer clients that do no require the use of a Hoyer Lift.
