I have vast experience in private home care with multiple patients, one having a stroke and one with terminal cancer. I also have have been doing in home care for 11 years now. Where I did respite care and campion care. I started 15years ago taking care of adults with developmental and physical disabilities. My main duties were to supervise everything from cooking, hygiene care, cleaning, and teaching everyday skills. Special needs caregiver. I've continued working at nursing homes for approx. two years, and then focusing on clients with developmental and physical disabilities. I love this line of work because I want to be that caring, loving, and dependable person you can count on to take care of your loved one.
