About Emily

Experience: 7 yrs

People deserve dignity, respect, to live pain-free if possible, to have skilled care, to not be socially isolated, and to have their needs met throughout the course of their lives. And to feel joy! The most care experience I have is caring for my husband 24/7 throughout his 7 year disease course with ALS: with connection, and quality-of-life. I am skilled in feeding tubes, preparing meals for people with swallowing issues, safe use of vents, bipaps, cough assist (manual and machine), suction, pressure sore prevention and treatment, transfers, medication mgmt (including crushing, through tube), bathing/showering, haircuts and other personal hygiene, and providing a stress-free, calm environment & more. Own accesible (even for power wheelchair users) vehicle and accessible home for 24/7 respite or to get of house. Can come to your home, facility. Grad coursework in public health & grief + dementia care. MPH Spring 2027. MBA 2011. Pro-active self-starter, skilled stress response.
