For over 32 years I have worked full time with emotionally disturbed children. Retirement has led me to take care of the elderly. Duties with my 1st lady included getting her out of bed, dressing her, and making her breakfast. Because she had difficulty walking, she would need assistance getting up from a lift chair, wheel chair, and the stairs lift chair. PT and OT exercises were also performed daily. Near the end of her long life, she needed to be fed and given daily medicines. My second position which began in April, 2015, and ended in October, 2015 involved taking care of a 97-year-old female. I provided companionship, meals, medications, sponge baths and helped her get dressed. I also did light house keeping, and laundry. She eventually had to be placed in a nursing home. Worked with Ann for almost 4 yrs. performing all duties listed above plus taking her daily vitals. She recently passed at age 102. Safety, respect, and the happiness of each person are very important to me.
