About Katherine

Experience: 10 yrs

Hello! I have been in healthcare for 13 years- I can not imagine doing anything else! I am 30 years old and currently in nursing school to become an RN. I have worked in a cardiac ICU, a Psych step down intermediate care unit, for agencies that take care into nursing homes, and in many home health care settings. I have experience working with dementia and the special care and attention that it requires. I have 10+ years experience caring for patients with muscular dystrophy and quadriplegia total care. I am proficient with CPAPS, some wound care, range of motion exercises, total care, CPR and life support measures, medication management, feeding tube care, and hospice care. Please contact me for a reference list, and I look forward to helping you and your loved one!

Katie is, of course, competent and excellent at her job. More importantly, for us, was her personality. Katie is fun. She is loving. She is empathetic. She bonded immediately with my mom and was skilled at handling not just her physical needs, but also her social/emotional needs and behavior. Katie was excellent at communicating with my husband and I and remained flexible in helping with mom in whatever way she was needed. I highly recommend Katie, as I have to many others looking for support.
