This is a criminal background check required for all caregiver before they can message families.
Elder care has become a deeply fulfilling vocation for me as I enter my own later years. Making people feel comfortable in their own environment at a time in their lives when that matters most. Helping people maintain their alertness and interest in the world around them. Engaging people on the level that works best for them. Acting as a support system for whatever therapies they may receive from healthcare professionals. And actively expressing compassion for family caregivers in sometimes uniquely difficult circumstances. All of this is what I bring a rather varied life experience to bear upon in my daily interactions with clients and their families.
Peter was the very best of our caregiving experience. He was alert, kind, and always thinking of ways to make my father's life more joyful and fulfilling. Peter provided day to day logistical support as well, like helping check email and sending thank you notes, paying bills, and reaching out to family. I'd say the biggest strength Peter brought to my father was his ability to listen. My father suffered from Parkinsons, which was quite advanced during his tenure with him, and he had difficulty speaking. This left him somewhat helpless when well- meaning staff would 'talk his ear off' or talk at him like he were a child. Not Peter. Peter listened, and let my father dictate the pace of interaction. My father enjoyed his care from Peter, and the family appreciated his thoughtful, inquisitive, and skilled assistance. Highly recommend!
