This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 7 yrs
I have just spent 2.5 years caring for a wonderful man in the home of his daughter. He was a stroke victim, completely bedridden & non-verbal. He recently passed due to melanoma. I was with him 6 days a week, responsible for bathing & dressing him, moving him from his bed, to his recliner or wheelchair w/ a Hoyer lift & sometimes the bathtub with a ceiling lift. I gave him medications & in his final year he was on a feeding tube which I cleaned daily and monitored food intake and residual in tube. I stretched him daily, cleaned & brushed his teeth daily also. This man had lived at Provision Assisted Living & when his daughter brought him into her home, they asked me if I would come and care for him. Prior to caring for this man, I worked at Provision Assisted Living in their memory care unit and assisted living section. I have cared for seniors for a total of 7. 5 years and feel a deep commitment to caring for the elderly with love and compassion in a way I would want to be cared for and honoring their dignity at all times. I am trustworthy & loyal with respect for the privacy of clients. I get my flu shot each year as well as my TB inoculation. I also maintain my CPR training.
