About Catherine

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Taking care of\helping people is not work to me, it's what I was meant to do, what I'm good at. I prefer to work with seniors because nothing beats the stories & wisdom they can give us. I realize that what I like to do & what I am qualified to do are not always the same. In 2000 I joined the Army National Guard. In 2001 I obtained my CNA in Illinois & have worked exclusively in healthcare ever since. I have experience working with the geriatric population in long-term care facilities, short-term rehabilitation facilities, adult daycare facilities, psychiatric facilities & home health care. I truly enjoy doing home care & feel that is where my best "work" is done. I can cook, clean & do just about anything asked of me. Also, I am familiar with hoyer lifts & comfortable transferring using a gait belt. May you find the best fit for you and your family. God bless you all.
