I have been a nurse for over 3 decades and currently working a few days a week with an active Quadriplegic providing bowel program, dressing and bathing and also assisting with IV home antibiotic therapy. I most recently worked full time caring for a Quadriplegic actor/writer/comedian who taught me a lot. I am aware of the problems that spinal cord injury people face everyday as a result of spending years with my previous client. I was inspired by him tremendously and I am a responsible, friendly, energetic, positive outgoing and knowledgeable person who is compassionate and with a sense of humor too! I live in Pasadena and I am aware of my special gift and calling, that's why I'm here. Caring for my friend transformed my life for the better and I am proud I was there to help him. I am now available and open to finding someone else to be inspired by and make their life a little less inconvenient. I come highly recommended and have references and recommendation letters for you to view.

    We are grateful to have had Sergio as our caregiver. He was initially attentive and able to quickly learn the specific care needs of my spouse. He has provided these care needs respectfully, competently, and efficiently. Upon request, he has provided additional support services, such as extra visits, transportation, and travel accompaniment. Sergio is both competent and personable. And as a bonus, our dog adores him and greets him warmly.
