About Laurel

What makes me a great caregiver is that I have patience with elderlys and I understand that its hard enough not having family with them all the time , frustration with their health and with most they know they wont be around much longer. I have great respect for elderlys and what I enjoy most about being a caregiver is to be of great company and keeping elderlys happy by bringing positive attitude and a smile.

Caregiver

Jul 2017 - Mar 2019
My Mom
I was still working at the airport as a cargo agent when my mom was diagnosed with cancer. My sister would care for her in the mornings and I would care for her in the evenings after work. I Prepared her meal and medication needed. Assist her to the restroom and shower if needed. Towards the end of 2018 we found out she was at stage 4. I soon went on disability. We did errands, appts, shopping, movies, played lots of card games, going out to eat, lots of site seeing, beach, travel to Utah to see her other grandkids and just about wherever she wished to go we did it. Her last 4 months was needed more attentive. She needed assistance to shower and use the restroom to the time she had no strength to walk. She needed to wear diapers and we would sponge bathed her and dressed her and fed her till her last day. It was the best experience especially because she was my mom. I know I can share the same love and care to another elderly who needs a great companion.
