I worked for a wonderful lady who was a brittle diabetic who has lost both legs from diabetes. She also was a dialysis patient that I took her to 3 times a week. I assist with getting her dressed, bath, check blood sugar daily and give her insulin. Make sure she takes her medication I drive her to appointments, and do her shopping and housework, I also listen and give companionship and help her have a great day. I do exercise, and care for her pets. I watch her daily for changes and have gotten to know when something isn't right with her and contact family and her nurse or doctor., or bring her into A&E if required. I loved and cared for her every need.
