About Kala

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am currently looking for M-F evenings (5 p.m. start), overnights and weekends (availble all day) positions for care/companionship. I'm a reliable and compassionate caregiver and companion. In the past, I have assisted clients with their activities of daily living, bathing, dressing, feeding. Medications/reminders, incontinent care, comfort care (along side hospice also), bedridden care, transfers, engaged in conversations, play board games, take walks, take vital signs and maintain a clean household and laundry. I have 20yrs of experience and can adapt to any situations. I possess exceptional communication abilities, as well as cultural sensitivity to deal with a diverse range of people. Experiences with stroke, Dementia, Alzheimer, Cancer, Parkinson's and out of hospital care clients. My rate is $25 -$35 an hour depending on care and distance. I am fully vaccinated, and I do have transportation to and from work and to also run errands when needed. I am also available for on-calls

Kala is a living angel. Her patience is unmatched. I don’t know she does it. She has a calmness and warmth to her. We hired Kala to watch my mom, especially during evenings while my mom on hospice care. She was such a comfort to have in our home, and my parents both found her exceptional. It’s somewhat hard to admit having a stranger in your home. But Kala made us comfortable and also made sure my mom was given every moment of attention that kept her comfortable. I can’t believe we found her, at such a difficult time in our family’s lives. She is such an incredible person.
