Hello, I love working with people I am a super friendly person, I have experience in dementia and Parkinson's. I love being a caregiver because every person has a story and I want to hear it. I am most proud of my 4 years of experience working with the elderly.

My bio might be long, but I hope it will help you enough to find the right help that you need for your loved one. I began as a caregiver for the elderly in 2010 with no experience, I had no idea what I was getting myself into. As I learned the field, I realized it was my calling. It was a total blessing that fell into my lap. My schooling (Bachelor's of Science in Psychology) also helped me empathize with diseases such as Parkinson's disease, MS, cancer, and Alzheimer's or dementia. My own grandmother had Alzheimer's when I was a child, but at the time I was misunderstanding and terrified. Now I understand the biological and psychological reason elderly people can be a certain way, such as stubborn, forgetful, agitated or even aggressive. I have decided that my life should be dedicated to those who cannot stand for themselves anymore, especially because they did so much for us in the past. I still cannot explain it, but I have so much patience for people that need my help in any way. This includes family members and those included in someone's time of need. I am making myself as available as anyone needs, calls, visits, etc. I will be here as much as possible for people who need my help, elderly or not. I have learned in my eight years of experience that I do still need to take care of myself (weird right?!). So I will be willing to help anyone I can but I will say no when I know that I am past my limit, please don't be offended. Right now I am a full-time employee at Lighthouse Assisted Living. I am currently available during the week after 11am, as well as all day Thursdays and Sundays if needed. Please be aware I cannot work Fridays/Saturdays currently because of my full-time job. But I will be able to work with you as much as possible. Please contact me if you think any of the available times/dates will help you as well as my background. Thank you so much for reading my very long "about me"!!!!

I have been a Care Provider for 18 years. I specialize in Alzheimer's and Dementia. Many of my clients I stayed with until their final days and even helped them transition peacefully and comfortably with lots of love and compassion. I believe caring for people is my purpose in life and it's an honor to be able to help our elders in a time in their lives that care and compassion is so necessary.

I have been an RN for 27 years, working in many areas of nursing. Most currently Hospice which I love. My husband and I recently moved to Conifer, and I am looking to supplement my part time Hospice job. I am looking for part time/per diem work, 4-6 hrs/day, 1-2 days per week at this time. I am a lover of nature, animals, babies and the elderly.

I am a responsible and hardworking caregiver with over 16 years of experience. Having been given the opportunity to work in different areas of elderly healthcare such as medication administration, ADLs, and activities has given me a well rounded view of all that a patient requires, allowing me to provide and meet any needs. My passion for caregiving stems from my grandparents that taught me to respect and honor our elders due to their wisdom and life experience. Throughout my years beginning as a caregiver and eventually become an Activities Director for assisted livings, my love for caring for others has only grown. Getting to see joy in others eyes and being able to help others with tasks they can no longer do is my inspiration. A personal achievement that I am proud of is a workbook that I have designed especially for patients that have dementia and Alzheimer's disease that details different activities that help work their cognitive and physical functions.
