About Jerrica

I have been taking care of the elderly since I was 14. I started caring for my grandmother when she became bed ridden due to having to have her leg amputated. I did everything for her. I bathed, groomed, took her to the bathroom, helped her in and out of her wheelchair, made sure she took her medication on time, cooked all meals, took her to doctors appointments, and shopped for her. I knew at and early age I LOVED to take care of the elderly and there is nothing I wouldn't do. It is truly my passion and I will do it for the rest of my life until I'm not able anymore. I love every aspect of it but not only love to take care of them and make sure they are ok and have everything they need and want. I love to just be there with them and around them to just talk and enjoy their company.

Brittini Johnson
I was a personal caregiver for brittini Johnson. I took care of her elderly mother. My job duties included getting her dressed and in her wheelchair in the mornings, grooming, cooking breakfast and making lunch, making sure she took her medication on time everyday. Light housekeeping, taking her to her doctors appointments. Running errands for her when needed. Giving her a bath. And being a companion that was always by her side until her daughter got home in the evenings..
