Amarily R.

I just turned 29, I am currently a Licensed practical Nurse. I have had 11 years of hands on experience at a day care facility for adults with various disabilities/disorders as well as a nursing Rehab facility for several residents. I have 12 years of in home health care experience for multiple families. I have experience from younger children with behavioral and physical challenges to adults with various challenges as well. I ran a program for 11 years for people on hospice with end stages of dimentia and other diseases as well. My experience ranges from companion care to hands on total care. I am extremely reliable and dedicated to my work. I have a great relationship not only with the people I am providing care for but their families as well. I can offer many references. I truly love what I do and know it is what I am meant to do!

Being a caregiver for the past forty years has given me countless opportunities to help a variety of people. I have dealt with many different situations and illnesses in all age groups. I am a compassionate and patient individual. Nursing is my career. I started in 1978 as a certified nursing assistant and went on to graduate in 1995 as an LPN. My specialty is geriatrics mostly in skilled nursing facilities. Presently I work private care only. I much rather prefer to focus on individual care now. Having taken care of both of my parents at home and having years of nursing background, I am more than qualified to take care of your loved one. I will provide a relaxing, stimulating environment where they will feel safe. All the while making sure their daily needs are met. Providing nutrious meals and snacks is also important. I have specialized knowledge of Altzeimers and dementia. I have no problem giving insulin shots or morphine as I worked in hospice care. I am single with my son grown up. I have a very flexible schedule yet do make time for myself. I keep Sundays free for church and family. I prefer to work day hours, but will work some evenings if needed. I can only help your loved one if they are able to be mobile as I have a lifting restriction. I can assist someone in and out and up and down, but not if I have to lift. I also help with errands, light housekeeping, medication reminders, and will offer any helpful info if needed for your loved ones care. Thank you for taking the time to read about me.
