About Cathy
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have been a caregiver for 20 years. I am a certified nursing assistant and certified home health aid with extensive experience in hospice care doing several 24hr shifts in a row and I have my CPR certificate. I love assisting clients with the activities of daily living - walking, grooming, bathing, transfers, medication management and I love managing their house when necessary to make them proud. I plan nutritious meals and am an excellent cook. I have my own transportation and assist with shopping, errands, and medical appointments. I love helping people and can always find something to talk about. I can say prayers with your loved one and can read the signs when they are in pain or need rest. I am a giver and love making a difference. I have extensive experience and I'm available for one-time assignments or longer assignments with 24hr shifts. I'm sure I can accommodate you and I would love to discuss your needs with you.

Cathy cared for our 94 year old father at the end of his life. We cannot thank her enough or recommend her more highly to others. His health declined very rapidly and although we were able to be with him we were very overwhelmed with providing proper 24 hour care to him ourselves. Cathy responded quickly to our posting and offered to arrive the next morning and stay in his home 24/7 for 3-4 days. When she arrived we soon knew he was in good hands and he was. Thank you Cathy!
