About Ekata

Experience: 9 yrs

Bringing comfort and support to seniors is my calling. For the last nine years, I've had the privilege of providing comprehensive care, including transportation, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and assistance with mobility. My college degree equipped me with a solid foundation, which I've enhanced with hands-on experience in hospice care, dementia support, and medical management. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I understand the importance of adapting to changing routines, de-escalating stressful situations, and handling confusion with patience and empathy. I prioritize understanding each individual's preferences and history to build meaningful connections. I communicate with families through written daily reports and always follow their preferred method. Supporting families and positively impacting the lives of seniors is what I'm most passionate about, and I look forward to bringing my calm, professional, and detail-oriented approach to your family.
