About Colene

I learned a lot about caregiving by caring for my aunt during the last 1 1/2 years of her living with Alzheimer's disease. I believe families are incredibly blessed to be able to care for family members are home, but I also know it is challenging at times and requires teamwork. I believe helping a family care for someone in their home is rewarding and can be a rich experience. I enjoy offering support in such an endeavor.

I have been a stay-at-home, home schooling mother of 6 naturally born children and 1 adopted child. I cared for my aunt in our home for 1 1/2 years until her death. She had Alzheimer's disease. I am not looking for work as much as a way to encourage families who are caring for their loved ones in a home setting, which I think is valuable, but can also be demanding.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I pay attention to details. I do exactly what I'm told, asked and also give advice according to my expertise and I tell the truth about what is needed when it matters. I first started working with elders within my monastery taking care of their basic needs and taking them back and forth to doctor's appointments and following their doctors care of plan. That transmitted to my professional work life as a certified nursing aide, as I work in the nursing homes and also in private home settings. It brings me joy to see those who are in need of help receive the assistance that they need without taking away their dignity and also giving them the extra help that's necessary.... at the same time allowing them to do what they can for themselves. I have a broad range going from helping those with terminal illnesses all the way to those who just need extra assistance around the house. There is no job too big or too small for me to do.
