Experience: 10 yrs
I have over 15 years of experience caring and advocating for Senior's. My experience includes supporting people with multiple health issues, memory loss and depression. I am trained to pass medications, complete personal care with dignity, light housekeeping and preparing meals. I enjoy planning enrichment activities and outings. I am the Manager for a team of five caregivers supporting my client in her home for the last four years. I am very caring, patient, outgoing and responsible. I have excellent references and am CPR and First Aid certified. I have a great passion for giving back to others. I will treat your loved one as my own. My Bachelor's Degree in Social Work helps with locating resources and navigating medicare. My schedule is flexible.
Amy and her small team have been taking care of my mother with dementia for a couple of years now. To put it simply, she has been a Godsend. Amy feels like a member of the family at this point. Amy and her team bring my mother to outdoor concerts and other events around (and sometimes outside of) town, as well as having my mother over to play with their dogs etc. This has been a massive boost to her quality of life in these precious years. I live in Florida and it is difficult for me to visit WNY more than a couple of times per year. For two consecutive years, Amy has accompanied my mother to Florida to come and visit me for several days. I didn't think it'd be possible for my mother to visit me at my home again; these visits were very meaningful for both of us, and it wouldn't have happened without Amy. My mother lives alone in a single-family home and Amy also coordinates any needed household upkeep, maintenance, etc. I couldn't recommend Amy highly enough.
