About Evelyn

I studied to be a LPN but during my clinical training there was such a need for CNA'S and I love taking care of people more hands on so I stopped there and starting working as a CNA, which I loved doing then I became very good at working with people suffering with Alzheimers and dementia. I love cooking, listening and being an Companion to people who are lonely, I make sure I am letting them be them and being just what they need to be happier in their life. My mother was a very sick person when I was 12 years old and I took care if her until she died when I was 17 years old. The my grandmother had stomach cancer, and we took care of her until she died. I have the love in me to be the best I can be when caring for people. I have done it for over 25 years.

Options In Community Living
I work overnights with 5 men in 2 apartments, I am mostly in the house with two of the men who must have 24 hour care. I check on the 3 men upstairs twice during night, then at 6am I get the 3 men ready for their day. I cook, clean do laundry, showers, oral caries, give medication. The two men downstairs I take to bathroom every two hours and sit with one in his room until he gives back to sleep, sometimes I have to change him in bed. I also fill in a lot for evening shifts for the two men, I cook, clean shower out to bed, the man in a wheel chair.
