This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
My goal is to give the best support system possible to families involving quality of life and professional personal care to the elderly. I speak English very well and pay excellent attention to detail. I am a very compassionate and professional caregiver skilled in total care. My background has provided me a broad range of experience in caring for the elderly with disabilities. I am very skilled in the following: *Personal care assistance (bathing, toileting, dressing, feeding and grooming). *Meal preparation and scheduling. *Companionship and discussion. *Medication reminders and distribution. *General help to the elderly and disabled. *Completing household tasks. *Transportation to medical appointments. *Light housekeeping and laundry. *Transfers and repositioning. *Physical and occupational therapy assistance. *Engaging clients in activities such as games and light exercise. I possess outstanding communication and interpersonal skills and am CPR and First Aid Certified. In my past employment, a key accomplishment was that I was able to create and maintain a peaceful home environment for the client and also implement geriatric massage to the client for circulation, stress and pain relief which promoted better sleep. In addition, I am a trustworthy and responsible person, who takes great pleasure in caregiving and companionship. I am dedicated and work hard and always accept challenges to produce winning outcomes. I have demonstrated my ability to develop great relationships with clients and their families. I hope you will consider me in your search for the right person for the position. Thank you.

I needed someone to help me look after my mother while she was recovering from illness at a nursing/rehab center, as she suffers from mild dementia and I didn't feel comfortable leaving her anywhere without an advocate. From the moment I met Pamela, I knew I had someone that would look after mom with the same care and compassion that I myself gave her. She even helped me when my mom was in the hospital...taking notes on her care when I couldn't be there. It gave me great peace of mind. I still use Pamela to this day to give my mom companionship. She is professional and knowledgeable and was invaluable to me in helping me to make some important decisions concerning my mother's future care. I consider her a dear friend and would highly recommend her services to anyone looking for help with a parent suffering from dementia/Alzheimer's.
