Cathy R. - San Francisco Senior Caregiver

Profile of Cathy R.

Full-Time, 4 Years of Experience

I cared for my bedridden grandmother for four years, two days a week. I cared for my mother for a year, three to four days a week; after chemo and helped her run her life and business. I took care of 90-year-old woman with multiple issues and incontinence. I took care of all facets of household and managing recovery of 79-year-old post-stroke woman and her husband with dementia. I created an environment and support team which enabled the stroke victim to progressively work on getting use of her hand back. I maintained a therapeutic environment for the gentleman with dementia to allow him and others as much access to his brain and personality as possible. I am passionate about what I do because I love people. I enjoy helping others do what they want and empowering them to fully enjoy their lives.
