Experience: 9 yrs
I cared for my dad while he was bedridden and on hospice at home. This included errands, meal prep, laundry, handling his medications/picking up prescriptions. Due to his condition, I am experienced with and therefore comfortable with unpleasant aspects of care such as cleaning bodily fluids, foul odors, blood, etc. I am also a trained medical assistant. Since my dad passed, I've had various jobs in healthcare. I have worked as a life enrichment director at a memory care facility, I have worked as a teacher to young adults with special needs, and I have worked in caring for hospice patients
