Experience: 2 yrs
Making a difference in people's lives is my calling. With two years of experience as a Certified Nursing Assistant, I bring compassion and a calm demeanor to every caregiving situation. My background includes a college degree and comprehensive training in CPR and First Aid. I specialize in live-in care, errands, light housekeeping, meal preparation, medical management, and mobility assistance. I adapt to changing routines, de-escalate stressful situations, and handle confusion with patience. I prioritize creating a comfortable environment for those in my care. Communication is key. I provide verbal and written updates, always respecting your preferred method. Supporting well-being and independence is my goal, and I look forward to bringing my skills and dedication to your family.
Our elderly friend was rushed to intensive care with emphysema and pneumonia. Ultimately he entered hospice, returned to his apartment at a retirement community, and initially was ordered solely water, oxygen & morphine. Everyone expected he would soon pass away. Instead, Dahlyn came on short notice, bringing his wide range of caregiving expertise. He skillfully provided both comfort and cure -- pureed foods, encouraged drinking/eating/walking as able, conversation and other stimulation, and facilitating visitors. As a result, our old friend has rejuvenated since a year ago, walks well without a cane, and is still going strong!
