About Kurlene

Experience: 9 yrs

I've been caring for seniors for years. It started when I was about 15 and I would shadow my mother with her clients. They were all so lovely and all their stories and pictures from the past were so intriguing, that I decided this is what I wanted to do. I received my training from the American Red Cross in Philadelphia, where I learned a lot about infection prevention, the proper and safe way to do transfers and how to prevent and treat those painful pressure ulcers. I am BLS/CPR certified. I have experience administering medication. I have my own vehicle, with a clean driving record and it's fully insured. This is not just a pay check for me, I do this because I truly care and enjoy working with the elderly. A lot of times people get caught up in their busy lives and aren't really able to dedicate the time that their elderly relatives need. That's why I'm here, to give you a peace of mind and to let your family member know they are still loved and not forgotten.
