Experience: 10 yrs
I've provided senior care to people in their old age. Through the years of caring for them, I've acquired a passion for the tasks I've been doing and have found personal fulfillment in helping them. I've realized my passion for social work when I was younger. It has enabled me to transition without much difficulty to providing care giving to older people.
Jesse helped care for my dad after he became a widower almost two years ago and after my dad moved in with me. From the start, he was a professional. He was always prompt, communicated well, and most importantly, demonstrated empathy and respect for my father. We hired him knowing that his previous experience as a caregiver would likely be needed as my dad became less mobile, and that did happen over time. Jesse would adapt and be wonderful in his support, always careful with my dad and informing me consistently if he saw any potential issues. When my father was placed in hospice Jesse once again was willing to assist in ways that were critical in keeping my dad home with us in his last few weeks, for which we will forever be grateful. His calm demeanor and warmth was an absolute comfort to us as we dealt with my dad getting weaker until his eventual passing. My dad was stubborn at times, resisting help from me or my sister, likely because we *were* his daughters. But he would often take gentle comments from Jesse to eat, or let Jesse assist because he considered Jesse a friend. We will never forget his kindness and willingness to go above and beyond in his assistance to us during the past two years.
