About Dorcas Chama

Experience: 3 yrs

Making a difference in people's lives is what drives me. With a graduate degree and three years of experience, I bring both knowledge and a genuine passion to senior care. My background includes live-in care, personal care, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I'm also experienced in dementia care and medical management. I can provide transportation and assist with errands. I understand the importance of adapting to changing routines, de-escalating stressful situations, and handling confusion with patience. I prioritize understanding each person's unique preferences and history. I communicate with families through written daily reports, regular updates via text or phone call, and always follow your preferred method. I am certified in CPR and First Aid. I am committed to providing compassionate and reliable support. I'm eager to bring my calm, detail-oriented approach to your family, ensuring your loved one feels safe and supported.

Dorcas is great. We hired Dorcas to care for my 92 yo parent. Dorcas was kind compassionate and loving as she cared for my parent. Dorcas communicated well with us via text and on the phone about my parent which were especially helpful when conditions were rapidly changing. Dorcas also provided clear well written daily notes in a journal. Among other tasks Dorcas assisted with mobility, feeding (including meal planning and preparation), dressing, bathing, medication reminders and management, and helping my parent stay hydrated. Dorcas is thorough, level headed, and easy to work with.
