About Virginia

I love being a caregiver, because helping people especially elderly is a very rewarding job, someone need to help elderly and that's me, should help them .. Not everyone likes to be s caregiver but for me it's a very rewarding job. I feel good if I can make an elderly patient smile again and especially if they can get back in walking again . I was very proud of myself when a dementia patient of mine was back to her normal situation ( not exactly normal) but giving the medications on time and feeding or reminding her or him that it's time to eat will help a lot in getting better. Time management for the daily activities of the patient will help a lot in getting better for the patient well being . I considered myself as one of the best caregiver at my job now, and will continue to give my good care to the elderly until I retire .

    Hello, my name is Jacquelin. I am a loving mother of one. I am an extremely reliable very patient caregiver. (Available for overnights) I have had the pleasure of working with mentally disabled individuals for over a year, where I gained most of my caregiving experience. I am currently a caregiver for an elderly couple specifically dealing with dementia for 4+ years. This is an extremely rewarding field and I truly enjoy making a difference, and providing great quality of life.
