Experience: 10 yrs
I have 20 years experience. My references are posted. I take pride in my work and go way above what is needed. I took care of my aunt who over the span of 5 years. My care consisted of driving her to medical appointments, shopping, etc. This care progressed to almost full-time, which included preparing meals, giving showers, toilet assistance, dressing until she was completely bedridden . While a sad situation, I enjoyed giving this type of care to an elder person. Over the years I have had several other cases, My last long term critical case was an elderly gentleman and woman who required well rounded care. And I was with my last wonderful patient for 4 wonderful long years she just passed away. I did the needed household shopping, occasional cooking, escorted him out upon request and provided an attentive ear. My personal care grew from assistance in getting him out of bed for the bathroom to assisting at the dinner table which over time came to caring for a bed ridden patient.
Mary is a ball of sunshine and energy. She brightens any room with her upbeat and caring personality. She cared for my father who was 101 years old. Caregiving is more than the simple daily routines. It's helping to keep an older person engaged and interested and happy, and despite losing some abilities due to age. Mary was always willing to do whatever she could to be sure my Dad was well cared for. I miss my Dad. But I miss seeing Mary and the great caregivers too. They became part of our daily life, and I can't thank Mary or the others on the team enough. You would have a tough time finding a caregiver better than Mary. She cares.
