About Katherine

I love what I do now. I am a care giver/ medication Technician at an assisted living facility. I have been doing this for over 3 years and I absolutely enjoy it. I use to take care of my father before he passed and that's how I got into the care giver field. I really enjoy the fact that I can be there for that person in a companion way and help them out in anyways possible. I have my medication Technician license as well as my CPR.

I take care of about 20 to 25 residents a day. I wake them up, groom and dress them. I also take them to all their meals. As well as assist with showering. I do 2 hour checks on all residents. I even have a couple bed bound residents that I have to do everything while they are laying in bed. I make sure all medication are up to date and in the cart for the residents.
