About Raquel

I have a little over 5 years experience. I have experience with dementia, preparing light meals, bathing, changing, light housekeeping, providing medication at the right times, companionship. I have excellent references. I'm looking to becoming apart of your family. The passion I have for taking care of the elderly came from taking care of my grandmother. I loved to see them smile and enjoy life not to mention the awesome stories they tell. I am a certified PCA!.

Mrs. Portia
I was a live in companion for Mrs. Portia mom who had pancreatic Cancer. I would go on daily walks with Mrs. Banks, we would do puzzles, read books, prepared meals, bath, remind her to take her medicine, light housework. I would also communicate with her Register nurse. Mrs. Banks was in hospice care but lived at home. We would have long conversation about life. I would also help her to the bathroom/change her diaper.
