About Leslie

I am a very loving and compassionate person. I work hard to give my clients the respect, empathy, and quality of life they need and deserve. I am a strong believer in patient advocacy, Thier rights and care are of complete importance to me. I carry a lot of pride in myself and my job. It is my duty as a nursing assistant for over 20 years, to go above and beyond to make sure the care of my client is that of superior quality. I have worked in private/home care, as well as hospital/rehab and nursing home settings. Also am very knowledgeable in hospice and end of life care. I pride myself on being a very outgoing, affectionate caregiver, with lots of smiles, laughter and hugs. I feel human touch is necessary in life for healing and comfort. Also I served in the United states Army as a mechanic for 10 years, so I hold myself to high standards in my personal life and in my career fields. I never come into work or leave without a smile!

Mark and Robin short
Caregiver/hospice care for mother. Cleaned home, prepared meals, bathed/dressed client, did wound care for major wounds. Sat with client and engaged with her about life and every day subjects. When client couldn't get out of bed, bathed client in bed and dressed. Changed bed linens and bed pads while client was in bed. Transfered her from place to place, and helped her stand when working with her. As she went into hospice, I administered comfort meds and took the utmost care of her physically and emotionally in her time. She passed with me beside her, I bathed her and prepared her for her family, and for her next journey. I have much more work experience than this paticular case. This was just a recent I used to show specific qualifications, and my passion for my work and for the client and family.
