About Kimberly

I've worked with the elderly for about eight years.When my father was admitted to a nursing home and I witnessed how he was cared for I developed a passion to try and make a difference working with the elderly to give them better care. I worked three years as an activities assistant with dementia and loved it,I have also worked as an LNA in a memory care unit. I have had special training with alzheimers/dementia care.

    My biggest passion is caring and helping people in need. It is a very fulfilling and important part of my life. When I'm not working, I spend my leisure time kayaking, walking/hiking, reading, being creative and taking care of myself and my home. I'm blessed with strength and good health, patience and understanding, and I believe this is why former caretaking clients always asked for me. I look forward to meeting you!

    I am a kind and patient person, and do not get flustered when dealing with those who are living with memory impairment. I enjoy helping people with their daily living tasks, and work to ensure that their experience with me is filled with respect and dignity in regards to their personhood and rights. Previously, I have been an adjunct instructor, so I have experience adapting to questions on the fly, and adjusting explanations as needed to achieve understanding in cases where there is memory impairment. In my interactions, I try to approach things with a smile and a dose of humor so that the tone of the interaction is positive and pleasant.
