About Kristine

My goal is to provide exceptional home care with a sense of warmth and kindness that enriches the life of my client and provide peace of mind to their families. Inviting someone into your home, or your parents, is a deeply personal thing. Not only do you want to make sure that your parents (family member) will be receiving the best possible care, you also want to find someone who will respect their home and personal preferences. Being an exceptional private caregiver calls for more than just being good with people, it requires proper training and experience. I am certified in CPR and Dementia Patient Care. I am trained and have hands on experience with; diabetic monitoring, vital signs monitoring, oxygen therapy, catheter care, wound care, pressure ulcer prevention, wheelchair safety and transfers, infection control, medicine management, nutrition, and client care documentation.

I became a care giver when I was very young. I was blessed to have and know my great grandparents and grandparents. so as a little girl I began to take care of them because I loved them and because it came very natural to me. I loved the feeling of helping people and making them feel better and knowing that I made a difference. Just to know I helped them to be comfortable whether it was changing a bandage helping with medication making sure they got to a doctors appointment bathing them helping them with their p.a. just talking with them mostly listening (my fav) It never bothered me to sit with someone in their final days I knew they knew they were not alone. I have to say that doing these things are my personal achievements that I have done and want to continue to do. I have a huge heart and a tender touch and a lot of common sense . I'm funny and outgoing and love to bring my personal touch to ones life. I hope to continue to do my best and bring smiles and make everyone I take care of feel safe and secure. I'm a good communicator. I believe that being so makes things so much easier and helpful in everyway. I'm always open to change and to do better. I hope one day to be a recipient of what I have given to others.
