About Sydney

Hi, my name is Sydney! I am a dedicated full time caregiver, I primarily have experience with home care but a do have brief assisted living facility training which included providing services to aid in memory care, physical care and psycho-emotional care optimizing residents' quality of life. I am deeply committed to treating my elderly clients with dignity and respect, my goal is to win their trust and alleviate any embarrassment or anxiety they may feel when needing assistance with bathing, toileting, grooming or other personal care. I also excel at planning creative activities customized to resident needs and physical/mental abilities. Examples include pet visits from a nearby animal shelter, game nights, outdoor concerts, card tournaments, art and yoga classes, spa days and makeover sessions. It can be challenging at times, but I truly enjoy working with elderly residents. Though I strive to make a meaningful difference in the lives of the residents, the ongoing lessons I have learned from them have in return made a lasting impact in my life.

Resident Assistant

Prestige Commons Assisted Living
Assisted residents with daily activities, such as bathing and bathroom functions, feeding, grooming, taking medication, housekeeping and honestly anything else they needed. Such a shame that the place treated their residents like prisoners and I simply could not stand to be apart of it.
