Senior Care in Eastern Passage

| Hello, I am an LPN with 12 years experience working with the Geriatric population. I grew up with my mom bringing me into LTC homes from a young age, this is where my passion started which led to my career. I have experience working with Alzheimers and Dementia. I have completed my GPA (gentle persuasive approach) training. I have advanced education in wound care and foot care. I am confident and comfortable in my role and capabilites. I believe connection is key. I understand how important the small details can be, especially for someone suffering from Alzheimers. I am professional but I also value humor and the relationships I form with my clients. Many moments over the course of my career have led me to understand what a privilege it is to form these relationships and be the person who makes your loved one feel safe and comfortable. Private care is a new journey for me, and I would love the opportunity to make a difference in someone's life and provide support and guidance to not only the client but their families as well.
