About Brenda

I am a certified caregiver. CPR certified, FIRST AID CERTIFIED, COVID-19 VACCINATED. I do assisted living and home health care. I can work under doctors orders or family's. Also enjoy being a Companion, enjoy cooking and all meal preparations, do medication reminders and can administer meds. Will crush meds or liquify them for a more comfortable intake for the client. I like to start the day with checking temp, blood pressure and oxygen level. All meals will be prepared and snacks given. Fluids is a very important part of the day. I like to keep track of fluid intake. I also have worked in a nursing home and as a dietary aide in the settling. So I cook good nutritional healthy meals. Sodium diets and diabetic diets. I enjoy working with the elderly, it gives me great joy to serve and work for people that need the help and assistance. I am a very nice caring and easy going dedicated puntual individual. I give my all. I am very very caring and understanding individual that respects everyone and the dignity of my clients. I love taking care of the elderly like if they were one of my very own family members. I am easy going and very friendly. I love seeing them happy,laughing, smiling and I enjoy seeing my clients eating healthy. Put so much love and effort in everything I do. I try to be the best I can be. What attracted me to caregiving is that the elderly need us and rely on us when the family can't do it anymore due to there family and work. So we become there helpers and like there family. Give them comfort to know someone can be there 24/7 with them. I am proud of what I have decide to do as my career. Makes me happy to serve and take care of the elderly.
