About Harold

Experience: 10 yrs

My legal name is Harold but I have always gone by Doug. I am a caring compassionate retired man with 25 years experience working with the elderly as an Occupational Therapy Assistant. I am also CPR certified. While engaging in a variety of volunteer activities including being a lay chaplain at church, participating in a group activity for those with dementia at church, delivering meals to the home bound, and making hospice visits I want to continue working part time with other male seniors that would benefit from my training and expertise. I have also had a number of positive client interactions while working with Care. com. Those positive interactions are noted in the reviews I have received. I look forward to continuing those positive working relationships in the future. Please reach out to me anytime you are in need.

Doug was absolutely outstanding in every way. He provided 24-hour care for me following my surgery, and I truly could not have asked for a better caregiver. From the very beginning, Doug was dependable, attentive, and incredibly caring. He was always early for every appointment and made sure I was where I needed to be on time. He stayed completely on top of my medications, making sure I took everything when I was supposed to and never letting anything slip through the cracks. What impressed me most was how attentive Doug was to my needs. He was always one step ahead, making sure I was comfortable, safe, and taken care of. I felt like I could completely trust him during a time when I was vulnerable and recovering. Doug went far beyond simply doing his job. He was compassionate, professional, reliable, and genuinely concerned about my well-being. His care made my recovery much easier and gave me tremendous peace of mind. I would recommend Doug without hesitation to anyone who needs a caregiver. He was simply awesome in every way imaginable, and I am incredibly grateful for the care he provided.
