About Michele

Hello! I am a married mother of 2 adult children. I have worked for 30 years in the mortgage industry but for the past 3 years have been substitute teaching for special education children. I made the switch to give me more flexibility to care for my elderly mother with dementia and other issues. She lives out of state so I continue to care for her approximately 4 times a year for 10 days each time with my siblings helping to care for her and keep her at home when I'm not there. I've grown to understand the need of good caregiving and advocation for the elderly through this process and believe I have much to offer to this underserved industry. I would like to work in the industry near my home in Huntington Beach, Ca. I am honest, trust worthy, reliable, caring and adore the elderly. They deserve our love and care.

I am an excellent Caregiver, no challenge or task when it comes to my patients needs are refused (unless detrimental to the patient.) I never take chances when lifting or transfer patient with special special needs I'm a good listener. Respect is big thing when it comes to caring for the sick. "They are not children" and should treated and respected as adults I have a way of respectfully getting them to exercise, take the medication, bath, exedra. Because I know these patients that. An also suffer from depressed, I try really hard to keep their spirits up and remind them they are loved and cared for. Have the abilities to speak with doctors and articulate whats needed for the patient. Make appointments. Order and prepare medications. Check vitals, including blood sugar. Give insulin shots. The for knowledge of gastric tube feeding and maintenance of the tube. Full knowledge and experience using a Hoyer lift.
