Have been working as a care giver with elderly seniors with Dementia, Neuropathy, or Partially paralyzed due to a stroke, brain tumors, or old age doing cooking cleaning laundry grocery shopping medication reminders or just sitting communicating with then. I find it very gratifying to assist these who have some struggles with certain areas in their lives. I have found my clients seem to appreciate the companionship and the assistant I bring to them. This is not a new field of expertise for me I worked in nursing homes when I was younger. Then became a beautician for many years After two automobile accidents I started a business going into seniors citizens homes doing hair for them to give the ladies some independence. I took care of my mother for 2 years trying to keep her home while she was suffering from Dementia diabetes and heart disease. As I needed to go back to work I have been working as a care giver. Enjoying my time with my clients. I have not limited myself to seniors only as I do realize younger people need help as well. I do have copies of MY Own Background Check which can be provided upon request. I think I am a very caring friendly and out going person. A little different than most always trying to find the lighter sunnier side to life.
