About Ruth

Experience: 3 yrs

I'm a caregiver for the elderly or mentally impaired or disabled. I have experience working with those who have Alzheimer's & dementia. I also have experience working with those with psychosis or schizophrenia, etc. I can assist with all activities of daily living. I also provide light housekeeping services, meal preparation, errand services, medication reminders & administration, transportation, fall prevention, bathing & grooming, & companionship! In my spare time, I like to be with my family. I volunteer actively at my church for both the children's & youth ministry as well as the worship team. I plan on continuing my education in nursing! One thing you should know about me is I'm very caring & kind. Your loved ones comfort, security, & care is my utmost priority. I'm told that I have a calm demeanor & put many at ease which is something I take a lot of pride in. Helping, assisting, & bonding with my patients & clients is something I strive to do lovingly & efficiently.

Ruth was hired as a hands on caregiver for hygiene, meds, activities and companionship. She was almost never punctual. We gave her grace. Delayed start date, more delays ensued. Still I gave her grace. She took my patience kindness and grace for weakness. Ruth put in little to no effort after conversations that she would try. She proved she didn’t care. She scrolled her phone a lot and rode the clock to ensure she got her full time in regardless. After not accomplishing anything, her hours were cut. Notice came. I was prepared and terminated Ruth immediately.
