Provide basic patient care. Responsible for helping patients with a number of basic hygiene tasks. This includes bathing and dressing patients, helping them use the toilet if needed and feeding them. Also, help patients turn and reposition themselves in bed as needed and help them move between the bed and a wheelchair if they use one. I listen to any health concerns patients may have and report those concerns to the nurses I monitor and document vital signs such as temperature, pulse, and blood pressure and perform basic laboratory tasks. I work under the supervision of nurses and doctors and assist them during exams.

Hi nice to meet you! My name is Alex, how may I help you? I became a caregiver because I am kind, compassionate, patient and you and/or your loved one deserve attentive care when you need it the most. I have experience with caregiving and absolutely love it! I would love to help out in any way I can.

I started out working as an orderly in High school and enjoyed working with senior adults very much. I spent 10 and a half years as a hospital corpsman in the Navy, again working people of all ages. I have worked over the years in adult foster homes and on a personal level working with senior adults in a verity of jobs, lawn care, painting, cleaning and minor repair. I have always enjoyed working with senior adults because they appreciate what you do for them and their is so much that one can learn from these individuals. I had the joy of being able to work and take car of my father for several months before he died of cancer 12 years ago. I would much rather work for an individual than a large company.
