About Desiree

I have taken care of anyone that has needed it to the best of my ability, ever since I can remember. I do it because it is my calling. I have done other things for work, but always come back to caregiving, because it's in my heart. We are all you going to need help one day, but for now it is my turn to help someone have a quality of life.

Caregiver, administrator

Jun 2010 - Aug 2013
Oregon city residential care facility
I started here as a caregiver of a 53 bed mental health facility/ Medicaid. I dressed, fed, walked, gave medications, cleaned there rooms, and the whole facility. There was also a lot of thinking outside of the box when trying to resolve issues with the residents, as most of them were mental health. A year and a half after working as a caregiver, I went through the state required class to become the administrator. I then,has a in charge of scheduling Dr. Appts for the redidents, careplans, med room audits, but all the while still working one on one with the residents. I no longer work there, because the owner could not afford to pay me anymore, because it is a Medicaid facility.
