Experience: 10 yrs
I am a responsible, hardworking, dependable senior caregiver of 12 years. I have Alzheimer's and Dementia experience. I provide care in all aspects of daily living: hygiene, toileting, bathing and dressing. If needed I assist with mobility issues and participate in exercises with my client to maintain strength. I take blood pressure, wound care, manage medications, meal preparation, laundry and light housekeeping, grocery shopping and drive to appointments and errands. I am a very friendly and compassionate caregiver that is looking to make your loved one's life easier and more enjoyable.
I can’t say enough great things about Laurie as a senior’s caregiver, whom we employed from April 2015-March 2016. She was a true godsend for my father and his wife when my father had a brain injury due to a fall. We needed in-home support for him and his wife who was suffering with symptoms of early onset dementia. Laurie was very skilled at understanding what they needed, and did everything from physical therapy, which helped my wheelchair bound father get strong enough for a walker, to grooming, toileting, appointment setting, driving, and some household chores. One of the biggest ways Laurie helped was in making sure my father’s medications were properly dosed, because neither he nor his wife could keep the medications straight. Not only was Laurie skilled at all aspects of senior care, but she was also enormously empathetic and understood how to communicate and get cooperation from my father and his wife. This was very challenging at times. Laurie won them over, and I will always be grateful for her help in extending my father’s life and happiness.
