About Rebecca

I love being the with older generation, I was so close to my grandmother. I have so much respect for the older generation the well-deserved perfect treatment by other caregivers. Taking care of my grandmother and being her companion and caregiver for five years through her Alzheiner's really gave me a passion of working with the elderly. I have been to Alzheimer's Association classes to learn more about this disease. I love working one and one with people and having a personal connection.

I was a case manager for a social work agency for most of those years. I have received extensive training in CPR, First Aid, Medication tech., as well as specialized training in mental health and neurological disorders such as Depression, Schizophrenia, and Dementia/ Alzheimer's disease. In addition, I completed a caregiving training course which provided further education and instruction in caregiving activities including assistance with grooming/hygiene care, transferring/mobility challenges, and toileting., and companionship. I did receive my caregiver certification upon my completion of this training course. I have worked in private home health care for approximately 4 years now, and am able to provide references upon request.
