About Bridgitte
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I've been a Pastor's wife since 1988, an RN and a Psychiatric nurse before coming to the USA in Dec 1996, for missionary work. I've done part-time caregiving for 3 Dementia clients, 2 Alzheimer's clients and 1 Parkinsons client, besides small children. Taking care of people and helping them are my gifts, I enjoy helping the elderly have a quality of life. My missionary work, nursing and caregiving have equipped me to be a people person, kind, loving, empathetic, caring, gentle, compassionate, and an understanding person. I would be a good choice to take care of your loved one because I enjoy taking care of people. I took care of a 95-year-old depressed Alzheimer's client with congestive cardiac failure for 1 year at her home and 1 year in an Assisted Living facility before she passed away in September 2024, then took care of an elderly client recovering from 2 catarract surgeries. I'm presently taking care of a depressed client and her 2 kids, and my Indian grandchildren part-time.

Bridgitte helped my mother recover from a surgery. She was very patient, kind, and a great collaborator. We provided her with medication instructions and daily tasks and she would follow them. She also sent detailed daily summaries and would make recommendations on a variety of topics from health to education. She is very experienced with elderly patients and I would highly recommend her. We definitely miss having her around.
