This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
Worked as a companion with Agency Home Instead Senior Care. I was sent on different assignments that were long or short live out. I worked with seniors that suffered with dementia, Parkinson ' s and Alzheimer ' patients. I also cared for patients that had Cancer and suffered from diabetes. There were also patients that suffered from depression, anxiety and bipolar disorders that I cared for. The duties that I performed were light meal prep, taken patients to their dr appts, reminding patients to take there medications and helping patients with their diabetic needs ex: exercising, range of motion, diet (going to the supermarket to buy food for their specific diet) and with checking their blood sugar. Also helped with assembling, handling and working with blood sugar monitor and diabetic insulin pens. Worked overnight shifts while patients slept and also regular daytime hours. I watched patients that had a tendency to wander inside their rooms in an assisted living facilities.
