I have worked for elderly as caregiver/ companion as part time employee. I was brought up to always care, respect and love especially the elderly. Have helped assist with preparing meals, housekeeping, running errands, taking care of bills, taking him/her to church but most of all listen and be a companion for some that may need a friend, even if it's just to talk and listen too. Have also assist with driving. It's priceless to know that you are making a difference for someone by making his/her life worth living.
