Hi! I'm an experienced Senior Caregiver. I help seniors and their families by preparing meals, doing laundry, running errands, picking up prescriptions, taking them to Dr. appointments, doing light house work, and providing companionship. I am experienced with bathing, feeding, toileting, administering medications and charting. I managed a five person caregiving team for two years, including schedule management. I am trained in transferring both manually and with electric lifts. I am trained in g (feeding) tubes, tracheotomy care, catheters. I have experience with dementia, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, MS and ALS. I am CPR/AED/First Aid certified. I am able to provide hospice care as well as post-surgical care. I am a non-smoker, have my own transportation and I love animals! I can provide excellent references from my previous families. I am available for daytime shifts as well as overnight care. I am looking for a position within 15 miles of St. Charles.

Gretchen is wonderful at taking charge and getting organized and situated. I felt at ease when she was care taking for my mother. I relied on her expertise and knowledge and I would hire her again. She is trustworthy and someone you can count on.
