About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

I am a hard working LPN for 29 years. I'd like to retire from nursing and do what I enjoy, while living in "paradise", aka Florida. I am experienced as a Family Practice LPN, private duty nurse, dementia/Alzheimer's nurse, end-stage caregiver, professional nanny, housekeeper and house manager. I am experienced with all ages and degree of difficulty. I have much special needs experience and love most pets. (I have owned many pets and was once a pet store manager.) I'm "salt of the earth", fun and funny. I do know how to follow your instructions of care, I know how to follow safe practices and I know how to provide love. I am licensed in NY and FL. I am looking to fill my days with a few "EASY" assignments, as I'm physically unable to perform the grueling tasks of bathing, dressing and lifting patients. I am capable of wound care, medication management, pre-pouring, refills and appointment transportation.
