This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 8 yrs
I have been providing skilled compassionate and reliable companion care (non medical) the past 8 years for male and female clients. I have a certificate in Gerontology and a BA degree in English. I am a registered Home Care Aide with the state of California Department of Social Services that includes an extensive criminal background check. I have no criminal record and an excellent DMV driving record. I enjoy providing companionship, hands-on care, mobility assistance, meal preparation, transportation, medical prompting, and schedule and activity management. I also enjoy theater, music, sports, exercise, healthy living, stimulating conversation, and frequent laughter. I became interested in elder care while assisting my parents through their final decline. I would love to be a part of the care process for you and be able to give back to a segment of our population that is very special. Resume and references are offered and encouraged. Best regards.
As I reflect back on this journey and I ask myself what I am looking for in a caregiver (now that I actually know what I am doing), for me it comes down to three simple needs. I need someone who is dependable. I need someone who is caring. I need someone who will work with me as part of a team to provide the best possible care. Well, I am telling you right now, Dan gets A+++ ratings in all three areas. Many caregivers would show up late or some not at all. Dan was Mr. Reliable. Some caregivers looked like they would rather be anywhere else in the world than helping my dad and were not engaged it made me feel guilty that I could not just stay up 24 hours every day and do the care myself. Dan was like my dad's best friend from day one. They would watch ball games together and talk and Dad always was more relaxed and happy after a Dan shift. I could fill this page up with rave reviews but it limits me. So let me just say, Hire Dan it is the best move you can make.
