About Blerta

Experience: 10 yrs

Experienced and compassionate caregiver with hands-on experience providing care for clients with complex medical and personal needs. Skilled in wound care, tracheostomy care, catheter care, ostomy bag management, dementia care, and assisting with mobility, transfers, bathing, dressing, and daily living activities. I am attentive to patient comfort, hygiene, and dignity, and I work carefully to follow care plans and medical instructions. I am experienced in monitoring changes in a client's condition and communicating effectively with families and healthcare professionals. Known for my patience, reliability, and calm demeanor, I create a safe and supportive environment while helping improve the quality of life for those in my care. I approach caregiving not just as a job, but as a meaningful responsibility and commitment to compassionate care.

Blerta took care of my mother after her spine surgery. She was amazing! My mom was so comfortable with her. She was so kind. My mom had an extremely complicated medication regimen and Berta paid very close attention and my mom received every medication on time. She took her vitals and on one occasion when her blood pressure was high she stayed late over her shift to make sure my dad had time to arrive before heading out for the day. She never left my mom alone, and our family really relied on her during this critical time. I was also there to take care of my mom, but I had a personal emergency and had to leave to help another family member. Blerta was always there for my mom. I honestly don't know what we would have done without her during this post-op recovery. If you are thinking of hiring Blerta, don't hesitate! She is kind, intelligent, hard-working, with excellent attention to caregiving, cleanliness and a high standard of safety. She is truly a wonderful in-home caregiver. Don't hesitate to reach out to blurda and I'd be more than glad to speak with you in person and tell you more about our experience. My mom is forever grateful. She had major spine surgery and made an excellent recovery.
