About Zakiya

Hi! I'm a Compassionate, attentive PCA that provides consistent, quality care. I became a caregiver in 2011 after caring for my family member who suffered a stroke. Prior to working in direct care, I worked professionally as an Administrative Assistant in the healthcare field and an Unit Secretary at a well known nursing facility in Beachwood, Ohio. I understand the needs of the family and the procedures of the healthcare industry. Experienced in working with clients who are recent hospital discharges, Alzheimer's, dementia, incontinence, stroke, PT, and hospice. Household Management Experience: maintaining calendar, scheduling and dealing with trades, vendors and contractors, procuring equipment, supplies and services as well as doing general cleaning, laundry, errands, organize and manage household inventories and budgets. Worked in private estates, nursing homes, assisted living, and independent living facilities.
