Experience: 10 yrs
I had the privilege and career satisfying honor to serve a wonderful elderly married couple for the past two and a half years. It was the husband that had multiple medical issues, one of which was Dementia. He also had Type 2 Diabetes and I administered his insulin and his other meds did his AM care, meal prep, exercises as per his PT,& doctors visits. In his last days, I gave Hospice Care under the direction of the medical team & still visit his widow. My other experiences in caring for a patient with Dementia includes; working full time with a CNA in covering for the care of a relative of mine, which lasted 5years. I also covered for a caregiver occasionally, who was working full time with a woman that had Alzheimer' for about 6 months. The duties I perform are the usual; assisting in morning care, light meal preparation & clean up, laundry, shopping, errands, doctors visits, overseeing the taking of meds, assisting when necessary, companionship. anything not listed, we can discuss.
Paula is not only an experienced and conscientious caregiver, but also a very kind and caring person
