About Deelda

I have over 17 years of experience in being a caregiver/care provider in nursing home, assisted living, geri-psych, hospice, and in home. I have always had a passion for being a caregiver. I take pride in my work and the care of others. My favorite setting to work with was geri-psych and being with dementia and Alzheimer's because these individuals need more attention, more one on one and I have developed the patience and understanding to have the heart and mind to care for them.

    I love being a caregiver taking care of the individual that can and can't perform their daily activities, that's why I'm there to help.. I Iook on the bright side of things and try to bring joy to a persons life. I have taken care of a lady and her husband for 5 yrs. she had dementia, bipolar disorder and sun downer, I handled that situation with patients problem solving and trying to keep everyone happy. After her husband died I was their for support, companionship. I didn't hover over her - I gave her space but was near by to keep her safe.. I love learning new things about people. It's a great achievement to help out the family with their loved ones. I don't have a problem with taking the person on errands, Dr. appointments with my car or theirs. I like to take walks with the person I'm taking care of, wheelchair or walker. When I'm not care giving I like to read books, walk and go hiking..And catch up with friends.. My recent work has been taking care of a person that is bed ridden with MS and uses a hoyer.
