This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 2 yrs
My name is Joy and I am 54 years old. I live in Emmitsburg, MD with my husband and son and our two dogs. I had diabetes for 25 years, so I am very well -versed with Diabetes, and how it slowly breaks you down, causing such things as Vision loss, Foot Issues, Pancreatitis, Diabetic Keto-Acidosis, Kidney Disease, and the list goes on. I have been through all of these things and can help with diet, exercise, meter operation, medications, administering syringe doses. I also have experience in wound care. I have experienced using a PIK Line for IV administration. Packing wounds, medication application, and bandaging. I am not officially certified, but I was trained in CPR. I have some experience with Alzheimer's and Dementia. I can assist with many other things as well. I have transportation.
