I am an Occupational Therapist with 20 years experience working with a variety of people with various medical diagnosis. Currently working for an agency as an in home caregiver and previously had a few private caregiver positions. I also work for a local company in Tucson called Senior Helpers as an in home care provider.

I am a full-time teacher that works extra hours cleaning, doing meal prep, and grocery shopping. I can only work 2-3 hours a day since I do have a full-time job. I cannot do overnight or live-in care. I like to sew, read, and garden.

I have an upbeat personality and get along well with people I try to treat them the way I want to be treated. I have excellent references and very punctual My moto is if your on time your late if your early your on time I have been in the Medical field for over 10 years and have worked with a verity of clients I have my own transportation and a non smoker I've done home health for 10 years I've been in OB/GYN Pediatrics and worked at Central Baptist on theCardiac unit I then went to occupational medicine and done Radom Drug screens DOT physicals health fairs with Urgent Treatment Clinic and more. I do personal care light housekeeping medication management. I've also worked with Dementia patients for several years

I am naturally a people person. I am patient, loyal and highly mindful of HIPPA regulations. I am empathetic, sympathetic and understand the need in helping to assist people live their best life, no matter their mental or physical condition or age. Care giving provides me the opportunity to fulfill my calling to help others who are not able to completely care for themselves and to also provide a loving and professional companionship to whomever I am caring for.

Ive always oved talking too elderly people. They are just full knowledge and life experiences.

I enjoy making sick people feel better. Sometimes a bath or a good meal or even sitting on the porch or outside under a tree can really boost someone's spirit. Basic human needs must be met for well persons but even MORE for someone who isn't well. I believe the elderly deserve to be listened to for they have valuable lessons to teach us.
