About Terry

Hi, My name is Terry. I am very interested in meeting with you and your loved one. Let me tell you a little bit about myself. I'm a retired registered medical assistant. I worked for Mercy Health Center in the clinic settings with Drs. for many years. Our speciality was geriatrics. I love and learned so much empathy and compassion for the elderly. I have experience in private care. I have cared for numerous clients in their own homes and assisted living communities. I love caring for the elderly, as they solely depended upon me. At the end of the day I felt like I had earned a "trust" with those that I had built a sincere bond with. I believe that family is so important in their care with their loved one also. I've always had a good rapport with the families, as without family my job would not be complete. I have experience with clients of COPD, dementia/Alzheimer's, diabetes, CHF, stroke recovery, cancer patients and post surgery etc. Most importantly, I provide love and championship! I do light housekeeping. I assist with transfers, bathing/grooming, meal preparation, assist with walking, laundry, medication management, injections (if needed), dressing, incontinence management, shopping/errands, Drs. appointments and transportation. As I know the importance of having the right person and one whom you have complete trust in as they care for your loved one. I have very high standards myself. I am honest, reliable, have a background check on file, reliable transportation, fully insured with clean driving record. I have good references if needed, but would love to meet with you and your loved one at your convenience.

Terry is superb and my mother seems very happy with her caregiving! Only regret is that she doesn't have the current qualifications required by the Long Term Care insurance company for reimbursement.
