Kind, compassionate caregiver of over 10 years. I have experience with wound care, g-tubes, medication administration, ADLs, Parkinson's, Dementia, mobility challenges, etc.
I began this work after my sister became paralyzed in 2012 and I took care of her in my mother's home for many years. My mother is a well-respected registered nurse of 50 years (receiver of the Nightingale Award) and taught me everything I know. This gives me a unique experience & insight into the struggles families face when searching for quality care for their loved ones, and I enjoy bridging that gap and using my skills to bring comfort to others who need help. I love to craft and cook, and I am good at keeping things clean and organized.
I am from the United States, leaving mid-October for my second visit to Ireland. I don't know how long I will be there, so I'm currently only looking for temporary jobs to earn some extra money while I figure it out. I am a member of care.com in the US and have met many wonderful families through the site. I have excellent references, available upon request.
If it sounds like I could fit your needs, please send me a message!
