About Nina

I believe that I've alway been a natural at caregiving, I seem to perform tasks needed before even being asked, I'm the hostess with the mostest, one might say. I have done both in-home care and have also worked in facilities for seniors and medically fragile DD adults for nearly a decade. My traits that shine are that I'm professional, non-judgmental, compassionate, patient and adapt well to the various needs that present themselves in most seniors day to day lives. I believe maintaining one's independence and respect is very important as well as key to building a good client relationships. I have skills ranging from basic ADL's, managing household tasks, stellar record keeping abilities, med admin as well as hospice experience. I love all aspects of providing in home care while always keeping health and safety in mind. I feel that I am a well rounded provider that can meet ones needs in a friendly manner which is important all the while keeping everyone comfortable especially when and where changes and transitioning are a concern. My experience includes working with clients that suffer from dementia and Alzheimer's. I am a good listener & love to share stories and as well as share music and art with clients. Trainings are all kept up to date

I am a naturally caring person, who was raised by my grandparents, so I love and understand the elderly. I love hearing the stories of the past. I love getting to know the families and people involved in their lives. People are important and every person has value and a story to tell! I helped to take care of my grandmother as she was aging and I look back on that time w fond memories. Helping others stay in their home. Making someones life just a little bit easier can have great rewards. I took religion is college, of which I have 3 yrs. I have raised two children, and have been involved in my church over the years. I am now helping to raise two of my grandchildren which I adore! I am faithful and loyal, kind and gentle to others. I am honest and trustworthy.I love gardening, my grandchildren, and nature and all animals, especially cats and horses. In my younger years I was a CNA for about 10 years. Then helped my husband in the restaurant business for quite a few years, then went into janitorial at Hood River High Sch for awhile. I now have an additional 7 yrs (?) in caring for others. I love people! Now that I am a little older, I am enjoying taking care of the elderly and have a good understanding for what they need. I have been doing so for a number (10?) of years. I am a pretty easy going person to wk with.
