I assist with dressing, bathing, bathroom activity, meal prep and serving, medication prompting and monitoring blood sugar with glucometer, treatment for skin issues, errands such as laundry and groceries, light housework, bedtime, respite care. Very hands-on work and I've learned a lot regarding safety and personal boundaries.

I supervise a 78 year old man with a traumatic brain injury and other cognitive impairments. When he was able to use his walker, I made sure he got around slowly and safely and tried to prevent any falls. We practiced walking and talking (communication issues due to TBI). Now, more than a year later, he is completely wheelchair bound and often unresponsive, so I mainly just make sure he's safe, attend doctor's appointments and help with transporting , do light housework for his wife as well as serve his meals and try to initiate conversation in order to exercise that muscle. I do a lot of respite care, giving his wife some time to get out of the house and live a somewhat normal life.

Hello My is Nancy, I enjoy working one on one with people, and I especially love to make them smile by doing little things to brighten their day. I'm a registered CNA and HHA. I have taken care of several family members and friends of family and I've worked as a home health aid. Every person is special and everyday can present a new challenge and I am constantly learning from my clients. One woman in particular that I cared for was 65 yrs old. She was deaf & mute and taught me ASL sign language. So taking care of an individual is part of the job, but 'Caring For Them' is a large part of My heart.
