Hello! I am a former psychologist who sought out care. com to provide more direct care work, to get away from paperwork of traditional positions. I now have over 7 years of experience. I have assisted persons with a variety of mental health or physical challenges, such as autism spectrum disorders and ADHD and developmental delays, as well as depression and eating disorders. I have worked in many places that assess such difficulties in youths. I am extremely patient and attentive, though I also have a great sense of humor. I am quite familiar with medical conditions and medications. I often accompany clients to medical appointments, and then report back to family members what transpired. I can manage medications, do meal prep and cook regular meals, assist with homework, take people to/ participate in physical and creative activities. As a person I am extremely patient. but I have a sense of humor too. If I can be of assistance to you, please do not hesitate to get in touch.
