About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

My career and passion has been working with the elderly population and helping them live at their highest potential. I have been caring for seniors for the past 20 years in assisted livings, nursing homes and home health care. I am a licensed physical therapist assistant in MI but recently have been following my passion of caring for the elderly in their homes as a private duty care giver. I am comfortable with providing all types of care and also very experienced with dementia. I can assist with walking/exercise programs, dressing/bathing, light housekeeping, medication management and my favorite is companionship. I have a flexible schedule, pay rate and many references. Please contact me so we can further discuss your needs and see if I am a good match. Thanks for your time.
