About Katherine

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

My mother suffered a stroke in 2006 and was left with dementia, aphasia and a weak right side. Because she couldn't live on her own anymore I moved to her home and became her full-time caregiver for 8 years. She had lost the ability to do anything on her own. It was time for me to do MY part and take care of her AND ensure her happiness. She passed away in '15. Since then, I have cared for many elderly patients who suffer(ed) from Alzheimer's, dementia, strokes, etc. Some of my responsibilities include but are not limited to: hospice and bed ridden patients, mobility issues, wound care, nebulizer use, medication management, sponge baths, showers, diaper/depend changes, ileostomy bag drainage, cooking, manicures/pedicures, laundry, cleaning, doctor appointments, etc. I am honest, responsible, and affectionate with the elderly.
