I have 3 year's experience with senior care. My first experience was with a mother and daughter. The daughter was paralyzed in a accident and the mother was a stroke victim.
My work duties: medication reminders, rotate mother every 2 hour's and assist to potty chair, Housekeeping, help with their 3 dog's, grocery shopping, assist daughter and mother with transfers to bed and wheelchair, bowel program, nightly catheter change, cook meals, and daily showers.
I loved what I did for them so I started looking for a new client. I sent out a email in regards to a 97-year-old that needed a Home Caretaker. I was offered the job. Work duties: bed bound; rotation every 2 hour's, medication, Housekeeping, transfer from bed to lift chair, hand feeding, and cooking meals.
I currently have been with my client since June of 2017. I have been with him through his journey with dementia. I take care of him every morning, 7 days a week. Client is now bed bond and has lost the ability to walk.
