I have 15+ years of experience caregiving. I assist with medication management, diabetes care, insulin administration, all activities of daily living, diapering, administration of bed sore treatment, suctioning, transferring, repositioning and using a Hoyer Lift as needed. I am proficient in providing Dementia/Alzheimer's care, as well as short and long-term post-surgical care. I provide exceptional caregiving services for all my clients with a positive, gentle, caring attitude. I communicate clearly in written and spoken English. I'm an American citizen and a retired healthcare professional (Radiologic Technologist). I AM SEVERELY ALLERGIC TO ALL CATS and cannot work around them. Small dogs are okay if not aggressive. I'm a non-smoker, a non-drinker, no illicit drugs ever. I am COVID-19 vaccinated and CPR/First-Aid trained and certified. I am immediately available for 6, 12 and possibly some 24-hour shifts. I look forward to hearing from you soon. References on request.

I hired Virginia to help me after a hip replacement surgery and she was EXCELLENT! She has decades of medical experience and was perfect. She made me a med cart with all my supplies, organized my over the counter meds, kept a log of what I was supposed to take and counted out my meds so I knew when to take them. She is trustworthy, punctual and dependable. The surgery center called her three hours early for no reason and she hustled to show up. She was a delight to have in the house and let me sleep when I was tired. She made me food when I was hungry and cleaned up. Virginia stayed over the first night because I was scared that I would wake up in a lot of pain which was very nice of her because she did not know us. It's just myself and my seven year old so I really needed the help and she did a lot. Her price is also very reasonable as many nurses quoted me thousands of dollars to stay over. Thank you Virginia!
