I like caring for seniors because they have carried the weight of caring for others all their lives, so I feel its their turn to be shown all the love back. I'm looking for a job that gives me purpose, that fulfills the needs of others, along with allowing me to take care of my family. I started caring for seniors when I went through a life changing event more than 20 yrs ago. My family was hit by a drunk driver. That day changed my life forever. I knew from that moment that I wanted to be able to help others. In my spare time, I like to make organic face & body oils. massage oil candles. Spend quality family time cuddle my pups, and work in the garden. One thing you should know about me is that I love deep! I am a very caring, compassionate, very dedicated, hard worker. My skills include dementia, alzheimers cancer & stroke pts.
I met Melinda at rehab; she was caring for another patient. I was very impressed with her devotion and attentiveness as I watched her daily care for her patient. Melinda is an extremely hard worker, very very honest and extremely trustworthy along with dependable. All those things wrapped up in one person goes a very long way. She is talented in so many ways. She cared for us with love and care for 2 years. She helped us also as a personal assistant. Taking care of our insurance, shopping, phone calls, appointments. streamlining with insurance and Dr, offices to get the ball rolling and procedures approved. Computer work and typing responses to letters. Things changed in our lives, or we would still be employing her.
