About Tammy

I am an honest and caring person who believes that you should treat others how you want to be treated. I love caring for the elderly and willing to do things there way no matter how silly it may be. I have experience in everything from companionship to driving them to appointments, meal prep, ordering pills and filling pill boxes. I have used a lift to move them from place to place when they can't do it on there own. Thicken food for ones that have trouble swallowing and holding there hand when they reach the end. They deserve to be treated with love and respect and I can do both. Anything I can do to help the elderly and their families to get through tough times. My goal is to make a difference in the way the elderly are cared for.

Started out driving her to doctor visits, bathing, light cleaning, med reminder and just about anything she needed done. Later she was confied to the bed, so keeping her turned and using the lift to get her up in chair and she had trouble swallowing so we had to coach her through that. Anything she needed I was there to help her with. I will miss her

This was a husband and wife. He had Alzheimer's and she had dementia and other normal problems for there age. I would prepare meals, assist in bathroom needs, make sure they had neat appearance . I took them to all the fun activities that were available to them. I took care of both of them until we lost him then I took care of her until we lost her a couple months later. I did anything and everything for them so there last years were as normal and as enjoyable as possible.

This job started with the husband and later his wife. He had Alzheimer's and Parkinson's . I did everything from ordering pills to preparing meals, laundry, cleaning, assisting with bathroom duties and bed baths when it came to that. After he passed she kept me to take her to doctors appointments and grocery store. I would check her blood sugar and give her shots along with her pills. I kept her pills ordered and made sure the house was clean and laundry and any other house needs.

I am a respectful and respecting lady. I love to care for the elderly as I want them to be happy, meet their basic needs, and be adjusted with their changes in health as life goes on. I have also seen that older people than myself like me. I did not have grandparents in my life, so I have a place for such elderly in my heart. Ever since I started visiting nursing homes and talking to them, I felt satisfied that I am meaningful to them and they enjoy my giving them company and sharing their thoughts. I feel proud about my passion for caring for elderly needs, and have gradually adopted it as a career. P.S.-- I will gladly give you any job references upon request anytime!! I hope and looking forward to hear from you....Aparecida. (Cida)
