About Bernice

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I've worked with patients with dementia and Alzheimer's, ALS patients, stroke patients, patients with AFIB, cancer patients, bed bound patients, end of life patients. I also do wound care and companionship as well. Worked with hospice patients for the past 10 years. My patients are very important to me hence I make sure their needs are my priority. I've learnt a lot about the elderly which has been helpful in my job. I've worked with wonderful families for the past 10years which had also taught me alot about dealing with the patient's families. I'm comfortable with all the machinery when it comes with patient's care. I'm fully vaccinated and boosted as well.

Bernice cared for my husband with terminal cancer for 7 weeks in our home. She was kind and caring, respectful of both of us, and encouraged my husband to try whatever he wanted to achieve. They formed a comfortable friendship and we both trusted her with his care. I would highly recommend Bernice!
