This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 7 yrs
I have been working as a caregiver for many years. I have experience with a wide range of both physically and emotionally/mentally challenged adults. I understand that any one of us could be brought down by a sudden onset of illness, and I have a great deal of empathy, patience, and understanding for anyone who has lost their independence or ability to care for themselves.

I am writing a letter of recommendation for Paula. I highly recommend Paula as a candidate for employment. Paula was employed by my elderly mother as her full-time caregiver for three and a half years until her passing. Paula was responsible for providing care for my mother in our home. Being a wife, mother of three boys and working as a full time teacher, it was extremely hard to manage care for my mother. We frequently needed Paula to adjust her work schedule in order to attend various recreational activities. She did so without hesitation. Besides providing fabulous care for my mother, Paula took it upon herself to cook meals for my family. She completed other household chores as well. These were not part of her assigned duties. Rather, she did them in order to ease our burden. In conclusion, Paula would be a tremendous asset to your organization and has my highest recommendation.
