I started caregiving in 1985 I took care of my great Uncle who had a heart condition. He moved in with me. I cooked his meals, gave heart medication, took him to doctor appointments, companionship. I really liked the idea of getting into the field. I started with Precious Home Companion in Vallejo, CA I also worked with Home instead out of Rhonert Park, CA I worked many cases with them. One of my client's was Julia Child's sister in Sausalito, CA I worked with this client for 1 year. My last private client was in Mill Valley, CA July 2018- July 2019 I then moved back to San Diego July 2019 I applied with Comforcare & done all types of job assignments up until 2 months ago (still with them) but found a private job with an elderly couple. One client was on hospice for 31 days at home. He recently passed away. He had heart problems. I now work with his wife. She will be going to assisted living very soon. I'm putting myself out there to keep up this field of work. I like being with people that need caring & love!
