About Derrick

Experience: 15 yrs

I'm a certified CNA and dedicated caregiver with over 10 years of experience providing compassionate, reliable senior care. I'm known for my punctuality, clean work habits, and ability to build strong, respectful relationships with clients and families. I specialize in mobility and exercise support, using Hoyer lifts, monitoring vital signs, and I'm CPR-certified. Caring for seniors is my passion--I value their stories, their dignity, and their comfort. I find it rewarding to support their independence and bring both physical and emotional care into their lives. . One thing you should know about me: I treat every client as if they were my own family. In my free time, I enjoy quiet, peaceful moments to recharge and stay centered.
