About Irene
Experience: 4 yrs
I have worked as a caregiver for 4+ years. Most recently, I worked with a woman for the final year of her life (2019-2020), and before that, I worked with another woman for her three final years (2015-2018). I also took care of my mom before she passed away seven years ago. They were all such lovely people and I miss them dearly. I have cooked, cleaned, and done laundry on a weekly basis. I have also administered medication. I have accompanied clients to doctor's appointments, as well as on shopping trips and walks in the park. I even babysat for a client's great Granddaughter and their family dog. I have experience working with individuals who have dementia or are in hospice care. These are things I enjoy doing, and it makes me feel good when I can be assistance to someone. Whoever hires me will see the kind of person that I am and will not regret it.

Irene was referred to me by a good friend. I was in need of an aide that would be able to deal with my aunt who has Alzheimer's. Irene cared for her as if she were family. She was truly a blessing and I would recommend her to anyone in need of an excellent aide. She started with my aunt October of 2020 until Feb of 2022. Unfortunately my Aunts condition worsened and she needed 24 hour care. Doctors recommended a nursing home so that's what I did. Irene truly was great with her. I could not have gone through this without her.
