I have been working as a home care aid since 2014. The most recent clients I cared for had two elderly parents; one had dementia and the other had a heart condition and renal failure. I worked with them for over a year until they both expired. My responsibility as a home care aid includes: shopping, laundry, assistance bathing, assistance with dressing, assistance with pill organization, taking and charting vitals, cooking, cleaning, and engaging in conversation. I currently work as a dialysis tech and am planning on continuing my education as a nurse. I have studied abroad in the Dominican Republic for two semesters. There I studied Spanish full-time along with translating medical triage. I also did weekly volunteer work with special education. I have such a strong passion for this field and I want this to be my career.

Ashley has helped me consistently and continuously with my mother who is suffering for Chronic Kidney Disease and Congestive Heart Failure. She is a very passionate caring individual and I will always trust her with my mother. My mother can sometimes be impatient and seem to be angry but Ashley knows how to handle her in a way that is very comforting. If you want a person to be able to talk with your loved one as if it one of their own family members, then Ashley is the person to care for your loved one. Most people who have worked in this field for years become callous due to dealing with sick individuals the majority of their career; however, Ashley is the one person that no matter what, she will always feel compassionate and sensitivity for your loved one. If you hire her, you will definitely not regret it. We call her all the time we need assistance.
