About Meribeth

What attracted me to CareLinx was the opportunity to make a difference in someone else's life regularly. The opportunity to combine my experience, knowledge, and interests into one career so I can help other people during a part of life that can feel overwhelming. I worked in Healthcare settings for over 7 year's combine, spectrum Ludington Hospital and Tendercare retirement home. My primary role environmental services, housekeeping. However, I am friendly, have a keen observation skill, listen, learned simply thing's like how to help transfer a person safely, how to follow directions about mobility, and how to assist with toiletting. All of these skills I picked up made it helpful to relieve my Grandpa or my Aunt to stop for breaks in handy when I learned about hospice care for two of my Grandma's. I am comfortable with dementia, altimmers, Parkinson, MS, degenerative conditions, mental illness. I have been in hospitality for over 20 years whether its food service as server in my twenties. Or the last 6 plus year's of my mid and late thirties as I worked my way up the ladder into the Executive Housekeeping Manager position for a corporation. Although it was a wonderful experience that allowed me to grow into the Assistant General Manager Position and taught me how to efficiently run a business, oversee daily operations of staff while taking inventory and documentation of stock to place orders. I know HiPPA, how to maintain dignity and privacy. Also, I have my own PPE for working in a client's home. I am vaccinated and I know the standard for cleanliness when handling C-diff, Hep C, shingles, and some other infectious diseases. My goal is to finish all my online training through CareLinx to help provide you the nest possible service. I then intended to get CPR certified and look into as much training as I can to provide yourself or your loved one the most safe, kind, relaxed, and comfortable care service imaginable.
