This is a criminal background check required for all caregivers before they can message families.
Experience: 10 yrs
Assisting my own mother through the rollercoaster of her cancer journey, remission, and final weeks in hospice care gave me great appreciation for all healthcare/home health providers and caregivers. I have experience assisting a neighbor with home care while she was immobilized with knee injuries and experience in driving and accompanying patients to medical appointments and procedures. I have 5 years of professional experience in medical office support which provided further training in navigating complex medical conditions involving multiple medical providers and specialists. I am not a medical professional but I know how to prioritize safety, how to provide comfort and companionship, how to assist others in navigating the medical establishment, and when it's time to call medical professionals for help.
I can speak from experience as a 77 year old senior as to why I rated her with 5 stars. Last fall both my knees were swollen with arthritis making them too painful to stand or walk on. Erin came to my house and helped me as a professional. She thought ahead about what I would need and borrowed a bedside toilet seat. Additionally a neighbor had a cooling machine which she obtained for my use. The machine was so helpful at reducing the inflammation without the pressure of a bag of ice. Erin monitored my medication and kept a written record of what medications I took and when. She made sure I had food and water and that it was accessible by my bed. I had known Erin for many years but did not know of her compassion and ability for caring for another person. I therefore justify my rating her 5 stars without hesitation.
