Most of my experience is in the areas of mental illness, special needs, Alzheimers Disease, varied dementia's and Aspergers on the Autism Spectrum. My career began in Upscale Senior Living Communities. I have a BA degree in psychology. As Services Director for 20 years, I have certificates for the completion of Alzheimer's care, activities, nutrition training, CPR and cardiac defibrillator. I volunteered for Hospice of PBC, five years with training in spiritual, emotional, and vigil care. I was my mother's sole caretaker for 15 years. I was my husband's sole caregiver for 7 years. He had MS, Alzheimer's and bladder cancer. My husband and my mom both passed. I cared for both of them at home and I had Hospice support in the end. I'm ready to get back to work, and I have a flexible schedule! With Senior care I can assist with daily household responsibilities, housework, laundry, medication management, bathing & dressing, meal prep, transportation. Pets welcome!
