About bridgette

My parents were aging and I was living out of the state with a family and career. I went home on many occasions to take care of the many health management appointments and business appointments for my parents. It was so overwhelming for me and trying to discuss their affairs over the phone just made the task more stressful. Seeing that my parents needed more hands on attention, I made a decision to move back home. I handle all of their affairs from their medical needs to driving them to the grocery store. I can see their relief of having someone to take over some of these responsibilities. Then I thought,could there be more adult children struggling to balance work, family and their aging parents or even older individuals who just need a little help here and there? I have experience as certified pharmacy tech, medication aide and took a course to review the skills as home health aide. My first client was a fifty-something woman whose mother had a stroke and she needed help in locating a facility for rehabilitation. She had a full time career and family. I gathered the information and she was able to make a decision that was best for her mom. I can do that for others because of my skills set and experience as a good human being. Everyone needs a little help !

I love caring for people. I have been a caregiver the majority of my life. Along with working as a caregiver currently, I was my maternal grandmothers caregiver while she had Alzheimer's until she passed in November 2015. I then became a caregiver to my paternal grandmother who had liver cancer for a few months until she passed in November of 2016. I have taken care of or been a companion of many others for over 20 years. I like giving back and helping those that are unable to help themselves. I treat my clients and take care of them like they are my family. I like to talk about just about anything and love to hear about their lives. I enjoy seeing a smile on their faces because they have someone to talk to and listen to them and help them.

Hello, I've always been a hard worker. From graduating high school top of my classes and doing great in college, determination defines me. Being bilingual( French-English), my communication skills are impeccable. I spent years caring for people in need, I babysit and I provide care to elderly. While volunteering at different hospitals for many years, I always knew that caring for people in need is what I wanted to do, I perfected my skills over the years by providing excellent care. Keeping a smile on my face, having a great attitude and focusing on my tasks makes me a great caregiver. Knowing that I'm providing care make me feel better about myself, and brings positivity to what I do.
