About Priscilla

Hello! My name is Priscilla and I am a CNA/certified medication technician with current First Aid/CPR/AED licenses. I have been a caregiver for over 4 years, and spent the last two years working in a Providence hospital as a patient care technician. I spent my weekends at a senior living facility. Prior to that I worked as a companion aide for three different clients, with references available upon request. Aside from my clinical duties, I cook, do light housekeeping, run errands, provide transportation services with my own car, do laundry, and take patients on outings and to appointments. I am willing to drive to locations as far as 60 miles away. I sing and play piano in my free time, and love hiking, tennis, cooking, reading, theater arts, and the outdoors. I am a great swimmer and can speak 4 different languages: English, French, Spanish, and Creole. I am a lot of fun - positive, happy, friendly, and gentle. I am also very dependable, punctual, efficient, hardworking, compassionate, loving, and respectful. I love my job and take it very seriously. I am humbled by my past experiences with caring for the elderly. I have learned a lot from them and believe that there is more to learn. My schedule is very flexible, I am available every day of the week at any time. I would love to look after your loved one, please feel free to contact me at your convenience. I look forward to speaking with you. Thank you for your time, God bless.
