Suction of fluids in the trachea, shampooing hair, shaving, care of teeth and mouth, toileting, dressing, range of motion exercise. I Assisted with peg administered meds. Takes and records vital signs, and weighs patient in bed. I offer the performing of light housekeeping duties if relating to the P. S: I will be available starting November 12th because I'll be in Miami, Florida finishing my course to be a certified Caregiver, and then to Rome N. Y.

Hello :) I have been a stay-at-home mother of two for the past 7 years. I have provided childcare out of my home for the past 4. While I love my job, I am looking to re-enter the work force outside of my home. I have Senior care in my past work history as well. I have been a companion caregiver and a CNA to the elderly as well as disabled. I have beaming references and am an extremely kind and professional person. I enjoy children and watching them learn and grow and believe that individual time should be spent with them. I enjoy talking to the elderly and hearing their stories from the past. Overall I am a very well-rounded caregiver because I can connect with people of all ages. I look forward to meeting you and your family, and for providing exceptional care.
