This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 10 yrs
Worked as a PT for 25+ years, 20 of them in Home Care. Since then I have transitioned to Caregiving, providing support where it's needed, including: transportation, meal prep, light house cleaning, laundry, keeping up on scheduled appointments and companionship. I have extensive experience with orthopedic and neurological (Parkinson's, strokes, dementia, etc.) challenges. I'm familiar with common medicines and the importance of compliance. Pets of all sorts are always a plus.
Jan cared for my mom for the last 3.5 years. My mom loved her so much - as a friend, companion and helper. Jan has a very unique skillset in her ability to subtly provide support without challenging my mom's dignity, which is incredibly important for a person with dementia. My sisters and I came to rely on Jan as one of the family and appreciated her strong communication skills, her ability to problem solve and to always ensure my mom was safe and well cared for.
