I am a "young" retired medical professional with over 20 years of experience caring for adults and seniors within an outpatient medical setting. I have really enjoyed working with this population over the years and know that it's important for people to feel comfortable and safe in their own homes. I would like to parlay my extensive healthcare experience to assist seniors at home in whatever capacity might be needed. I am compassionate, caring, active, positive, energetic with a great sense of humor and the ability to handle the unexpected. I believe the best way to find a match is to have a conversation with the family and client seeking a caregiver to see if it's a good match! Of note, I am a registered dietitian (MS, RD) and have specialty experience caring for people with cancer, diabetes management, specialized diets, swallowing challenges and tube feeding. I am adept with medical terminology, medications and communicating with health care teams.
