About Irina

My name is Irina. I am CNA-Certified Nursing Assistant. I have nursing background: graduated from Nursing College in Tbilisi, Country Georgia. I enjoy working with an elderly as a stand-in for family members, who cannot be there full-time. Believe in personalized care rather than aloof and sporadic visits. I am experienced with different health conditions: with dementia, Alzheimer's, stroke, diabetes, CHF, blindness, tube feeding, urinary bags...I am good in shadowing and constant supervision of patients-in order to prevent injury and ease any discomfort immediately, respecting privacy at the same time. I consider meal preparation and cleaning as part of taking care of another person. I take job seriously, and give my full attention to the work. I think, that companionship is very important: replacing loneliness with laughter and familiarity can make a difference in a person's health. I am a good driver and have a reliable car to get to work and to take your loved one to appointments, shopping... Please, consider me for this job. I'll be looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks I'll be looking forward to hearing from you. Thanks

I became a caregiver to provide warmth and comfort the the elderly and disabled. I like making the client feel secure and know that they can trust me. I give 110% to everything I do. When they see a familiar face everyday it makes them feel good and their willingness becomes better as the days go by. Their faces light up and they talk to you about anything that's on their mind. Even if they say the same things over and over again, it gives them great pleasure that you are willing to listen. Seeing the happiness on their face is the best achievement that I could ever give. Knowing that they are happy and content. I have been doing this so long, it doesn't feel like a job more like accomplishment. Helping people who can't help themselves. Lite housekeeping, medication reminder, food preparation, bed bath, baths, errands, medical visits, arts and crafts, accompanying them outside, laundry, inventory and anything else they will need. My serves is available Monday thru Friday. Full days
