8 years of experience
This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 8 yrs
I have over 12 years experience caring for family members living with dementia, one senior individual and one with younger-onset Alzheimer's. However, I consider myself a well-rounded care provider that is not limited to caring for those with dementia - my experience includes companionship, personal care assistance, help staying active, and advocating, just to name a few. For 8 years I was the primary caregiver for my family member with younger-onset Alzheimer's (ages 53 to 61). I cared for her in my home for 4 years, continuing the care when she moved to assisted living, and then while in memory care. I have gained invaluable insight and skills being present through the different stages of dementia and the aging process, all the way from providing companionship to end of life care. It would be an honor to support you and your family's needs. I look forward to connecting.
