I love working with elderly people, I treat your love one as if they were my own family, I am very responsible, respectful and dependable and I will go thy extra mile to make sure your loved one is taken care for.

Hello, thank you for taking the time to read this. I am looking to help care for you or your loved one. I am willing to travel in reason. I have a criminal justice degree, management experience, a NY CNA certificate (17 yrs), and I recently graduated from school for my LPN, I have not taking the state exam yet, but will very soon. I have all my immunizations, psychology courses completed along with a First Responder course completed. I have worked in a 120 bed nursing home, this med surge unit and have done home care, for a few people. I managed medicines, looking for side effects, lab values, range of motion, I have experience with dementia/ Alzheimer's, bipolar, depression, aggressiveness, hearing losses/aids, incontinence, wheelchairs, hoyer/stand lifts, ambulation, personal care, dressing, working with physicians and families on creating plans of action to ensure safety, emotional wellness, and physical needs are being entertained. I am available to help with laundry, cooking and driving to appointments. I have two vehicles that are insured and reliable. I am a honest, dependable and caring person who enjoys making someone day a great one! I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with people and making them feel their best while providing their dignity, independence and utilizing my experience to help people stay healthy, stay home and stay a person, not a number in a nursing home. I love living life and putting smiles on peoples faces! I have very strong letters of recommendations, including previous employers and from a Cardiac physician. If I seem like someone you or your loved ones could use to help in any way, please contact me.
