About Susan

My goal is to help people live full, independent and dignified lives within the comfort of their own homes. I am dedicated to providing comprehensive in-home care that enriches lives and am committed to helping your parent or loved one maintain the highest possible level of independent living. I am a highly dependable and reliable caregiver who loves taking care of the elderly. I can provide the following: ADL's, medication management (ordering and supervision), oxygen, assistance with bathing and getting dressed, meal preparation. I'm a great cook, light housekeeping, laundry, transportation to doctor, beauty salon/barber, outings and companionship. I am adept with dealing with Doctors and medical staff, navigating Medicare issues and making sure the medications a client is taking have no cross issues. I can provide daily reporting on client and monthly expense reports. I fully understand dementia and associated behaviors with the elderly. I have 3 years experience and I'm open to an hourly rate or weekly salary-live in or live out position. I am First Aid and CPR and OSHA compliance certified and have extensive medical background experience. Let's talk about how I can help you with taking care of your loved one!

I become a caregiver when my mom got sick. I realize at that moment I will be a good aide. I love taking care of people. I really enjoy the feeling of putting a smile on someone's face. letting them know they can always count on me to be there to assist when the needs arises. I have recieved awards for my job.
