My name is Lina and I have had the pleasure for working as a medical companion for a patient with dementia, stroke, and PTSD for over 8 years years. I have a masters of science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling which assists with my daily tasks as well as connecting with clients and their families. I believe to make the patient comfortable while providing the highest level of care to prolong their life, mind, spirit, and physical abilities with awareness, motivation with proven tools such as motivational interviewing, trauma informed, compassion, encouragement, and care management. It is also important to follow a routine that assists the client as well a calendar of care for medical consultations with doctors, medical professionals, and family members or guardians.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
