This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
I have over 20 years of experience working with seniors, assisting with mobility exercises and motivating daily home activities. I am a certified home health care worker with the State of California.
Andrea is of impeccable integrity. References she gave said they would trust her in a minute with the keys to their houses. Andrea became a live in caregiver for my wife, aged 88 who had advanced dementia and was debilitated as well from a severe head injury suffered in 2005. She was in this role for fourteen months until my wife passed away peacefully in our home. I was overwhelmed having been sole 24/7 caregiver since the 2005 injury. Andrea shopped for and cooked all our meals. She provided sorely needed respite, which I could not afford prior to the live in arrangement with Andrea. My wife entered in-home hospice March 8, 2016 and passed away May 23rd. Her wish was to die in her own home and not be moved to a care facility. Andrea helped make this happen, and was of unsurpassed help to me during this time. She worked with the in home help hospice provided, and was there when I needed help, as my wife lost all mobility and the ability to speak during the last few weeks.
