About Jamie

What are your personality traits or expertise that help you be a great caregiver? - As an artist, I tend to see the little things that many overlook. I have been told by many of my clients, coworkers, friends and family, that I am a calming spirit to be around. I have experience working with individuals with physical and psychiatric disabilities. What attracted you to being a caregiver? - I always loved people and have a motherly desire to care for others. What do you enjoy most about being a caregiver? - I love hearing about the people's lives and connecting with them. -- I am teaching my son American Sign Language, while I am not fluent I do hope to be one day. I also understand a little bit of Spanish, although I can read it better than speak it.

Transportation/Life Enrichment/ Homecare Caregiver

Aug 2018 - Dec 2021
Touchmark in the West Hills
I was hired as the Head of Transportation for Life Enrichment. I was in charge of taking care of all the vehicles, managing the schedule for the LE outings and doctor visits. I was also in charge of managing the drivers and assigning them their daily tasks. Being that this position was very new, I spent my time building the base of the department. After having my first child I requested to step down from the position and be an assistant for LE and the new Head of Transportation. I help create and manage daily activities for the retirement home. When the pandemic hit, they needed help with Homecare so I offered my services as I had the needed experience. As a caregiver, I assist specific residents with daily necessities and manage my state required paperwork.

My primary concern as a caregiver is to make sure that my client is able to function at the best of their ability and to make sure that they are having the highest quality of life that they are able to have. I am not only there for my client but I am also there for the family (such as: to let them go grocery shopping, are just to be another set of ears at doctor appointments or for the family. After a few days with the client and the family I begin to consider them family. I have a great amount of nurturing and empathy, some say I care to much but I give 150% to my clients and families. I enjoy order and dispensing medication, relating to my clients, enjoy the pass and working on family history. I have no parents or grandparents so my clients kind of fill these roles. I have been a first responder, EMT, CPR Instructor, nurse's aide, and medication aide. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is having a D.N.S. that I work with for a long time trust me to teach new nurse's the medication routine and to be a charge nurse. As a personal care giver the highest praise I can be given is for my client to tell me I must be an angel and that they love me.
