I have been a caregiver for 20 years. I am a certified nursing assistant and certified home health aid with extensive experience in hospice care and have my CPR certificate. I love assisting clients with the activities of daily living - walking, grooming, bathing, transfers, medication management and I love managing their house when necessary to make them proud. I plan nutritious meals and am an excellent cook. I have my own transportation and assist with shopping, errands, and medical appointments. I love helping people and can always find something to talk. I can say prayers with your loved one and can read the signs when they are in pain or need rest. I am a giver and love making a difference. I have experience with dementia, Alzheimer's, stroke, diabetes, dialysis and disabilities and my rates are negotiable and I would love to discuss your needs with you.

Caregiver

Avg response < 3 hrs

I am a seminarian who graduated in August 2020 and want to follow my calling to serve my community through providing care. I recently moved back to Portland after living in Atlanta for six years, five of which have been spent attending Emory University. Many times in my family we had to employ caregivers for members who needed special care due to illness or special circumstances. I feel my gifts are aligned with working with persons with disabilities and I am pleased to offer my help.

I am writing on behalf of Kathy who worked in our home as the Caregiver for my father until he passed away 3 weeks short of his 96th birthday. Kathy is reliable and caring, she formed a bond of trust with my Dad and was in tune with his needs. She took the initiative to prepare meals that were nutritious and to his liking, She helped with housework and was very respectful of our space. She did a great job managing his medications, taking him to doctor's appointments and all the care he needed with getting cleaned up and dressed each day. I couldn't recommend anyone more highly and as a physician I was very aware of how well she did her job and how honest and compassionate that she is.

Rebekah J.|Milwaukie, OR

$30-35/hr • 10 yrs exp • 45 yrs old

Senior Companion Caregiver

For over 15 years I was committed to caring for my mother who suffers from multiple sclerosis. She lived with my family for over 10 years so I could provide quality, loving, and individualized care to meet her increasing medical needs, keep her independent, and give her a rich, joy-filled life. My duties with her care were vast, but the most important thing I gave her during that time was joy through active listening, laughter and love. This alone elevated her mood, increased her overall health and decreased the rate of decline of the disease. Completing my master's level degree in counseling in 2005 helped fine-tune my communication skills in reading and meeting people where they're at on any given day and providing a deeper level of patience, empathy and understanding. My passion is to make a positive impact and enable well-being for people. The past experience with my mom and these past 2. 5 years providing professional care to seniors make me a great candidate for your care needs.

I highly recommend Bekah as a care provider having known her for several years and her kindness is only one of her many wonderful qualities. If in need of care for a family member, she is the first person I would turn to for help.

Fun, Loving and Compassionate Caregiver

Looking for a mature caregiver with over 20 years experience? I am seeking a position where I can use my knowledge and skills to promote independence and the best quality of life possible. I operated an Adult Care Home for 7 years and have experience with Dementia, Alzheimer's, Diabetes, Parkinson's, Stroke, and Hospice. Training by a licensed RN has given me confidence in monitoring Oxygen use, Tube feedings, giving Insulin shots and operating Hoyer Lifts. Knowledge is the key to better understanding and caring for clients with debilitating diseases. I strive to attend Continuing Education classes to be better informed. I am very capable of setting up and administering medications, preparing and serving meals according to dietary needs and being responsible for the safety and cleanliness of the surrounding environment. Providing moral support and companionship is a big part of the picture and I genuinely enjoy the company of the older generation. I have a very patient demeanor.
