This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Experience: 7 yrs
My primary relevant experience is working with elderly clients as a bilingual (English/Spanish) speech language pathologist in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, home health, and outpatient clinics. The primary diagnoses I've worked with in these settings include: dementia, Parkinson's, traumatic brain injury, and stroke (among others). I also have experience providing in home care gap coverage for an elderly relative, including: companionship, assistance with mobility and transfers, cooking, cleaning, shopping, organization and management of in-home care team, managing medications and medical appointments, and toileting. I have a current CPR certification and am willing to obtain additional training as necessary. I'm detail oriented, a quick learner, and my priority is relationship-building, connection, and helping clients maintain their sense of dignity. I hope to not just be an employee, but to become an integral part of the team and family.
Jennifer did an incredible job both organizing and providing in-home care for my 111 year old grandfather (yes 111, not a typo) in the final months of his life. She was both skilled (managing sit/stand transitions safely, assisting with bathing and daily care) and empathetic, becoming a close friend of my grandfathers. She was highly organized, helping to recruit other staff when around-the-clock care became required, and made sure that transfer of responsibilities (e.g. medications) between caretakers was handled in a clear and systematic way. Jennifer was an wonderful source of stability for our family during a difficult time, and my family owes her a debt of gratitude. I highly recommend Jennifer to anyone in need of caretaking help.
