This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 5 yrs
I have 5 years of experience. I have cared for patients with the following conditions: stroke, memory care, mental illness, Parkinson's, sundowning, swallowing issues, COVID, Alzheimer's, dementia, cancer, hospice care and patient's who have suffered from falls. I have worked in a hospital setting and as a home caregiver. I am trained in ADL' s, physical therapy exercises, bowel care, Foley Catheter, condom catheter, and gate belt training. I am a former restaurant owner and pastry chef. I am experienced at preparing healthly meals. Yet on occasion I believe in serving the quality healthy food along with a dessert, if permitted. My father's motto was he would always rather have two desserts instead of one. "It's called living." Just even a small bite gives a boost to a persons day. I believe it is very important to be dependable and collaborate with the patient, family and the care team to keep a joyful and healing environment for everyone involved.

Lisa has been a blessing to our team. She has helped care for my mom for about a year and a half now and she is always going above and beyond to make sure my mom is safe and happy. My mom has short-term memory loss and needs a lot of assistance with daily needs. Lisa provided exceptional care, demonstrating professionalism, compassion, and patience throughout her time with us. Additionally, she exhibited an outstanding work ethic, consistently showing reliability, attention to detail, and a proactive approach to caregiving. She was always punctual, thorough in her duties, and willing to go the extra mile to ensure my mom was comfortable and well-cared for. Her ability to anticipate needs and address challenges efficiently was truly commendable. Lisa assisted with daily activities, medication management, and created meaningful moments through engaging activities. Her calm demeanor, excellent communication, and dedication were invaluable to our family, ensuring my mom felt secure and well cared for. We had to lose Lisa due to a change in my mom's circumstances, but I confidently recommend Lisa for any caregiving position.
