About Piper

I have worked in the medical field off and on for many years doing work from retirement facility aide to EMT/ firefighter. I enjoy working with and learning from our older generations as they have quite a history behind them. They appreciate the little things and many times just need someone to listen. I welcome the opportunity to be the helper/listening ear/caregiver/assistant/maid/cook/taxi for your loved ones. On a side note, from 2017-2019 I lived with my 75 year old mother and cared for her. We went for either a walk or swim every morning and meals were my responsibility. (She is also completely able to care for herself, she just hates to cook). I did assist with repairs around the house and did much of the driving for her.

Hospice Care for Mother in law

Jan 2014 - Present
Mother In Law
My dear Mother in Law was diagnosed with cancer in December 2013. I took leave from my job to fly over to her to care for her. I moved in with her and helped her with everything from bathing, dressing, cooking, medication reminders, transporting to doctors appointments, etc. Unfortunately, it was a very aggressive form of cancer and she succumbed to it two months later, breaking my heart. I feel blessed I was able to be there for her until the end. I completely understand the difficulty of dealing with a dying loved one.

Overnight Facility Staff

Jan 1994 - Jun 1995
Retirement Home
My position was from 10pm to 6am. During those hours I took phone calls from residents that needed assistance, took care of medical issues, cleaned the common areas, did residents laundry and brought them to breakfast. This was a wonderful job that I only left due to leaving the state. Medical conditions I got experience with: alzheimer's disease, dementia, TIA, diabetes, mobility issues, cancer and much more.
