About Cathy

My name is Cathy, and I am a dedicated, mature and responsible caregiver. I graduated from the Home Health Aide program at Ashworth College with a 3.91 GPA. I initially trained to be a Home Health Aide to be able to better assist an elderly neighbor. I quickly realized how rewarding it is to help others, and through CareLinx, I have been able to take additional courses that allow me to better assist seniors in their homes. I am available for medication reminders, light housekeeping, meal prep, bathing, mobility assistance, and various other duties as needed. I am honest, kind and compassionate, and would love the opportunity to assist you in your home.

I take pride in the job that I do. Taking care of someone is personal to me. We are all going to get old one day and need help. When you can see things from their point of you, it creates a great working enviroment.

My dad has Huntington's disease, my family and I have been his caregivers for over 5-6 years until he was recently put into a nursing facility. I would love to be a caregiver because I know how much it helps my dad to have an understanding, patient, and kind person to help him be a little more motivated to get through his day. I would be proud to say I am a caregiver, I not only will love my job but I will also love the clients I work with.
