This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
I have 29 yrs of experience in the medical field as a nurse assistant, C. N. A. while pursuing a degree as a nurse. I worked in area hospitals as a CNA/student nurse , with geriatrics being my main focus. I gained years of experience in rehab working with hip/ knee replacements, stroke survivors, generalized weakness due to hospital stays, illness or aging and hospice. I have also worked in home- health, long-term skilled facilities, assisted living both in a nursing capacity as well as a Director of Marketing and Admissions. I have volunteered over the years to then become Director of Activities in an effort to bring joy into the lives of those placed in institutions. I have offered respite care free of charge through my parish community which then afforded me the privilege of being self-employed solely on referrals. I believe in a holistic approach which looks at the person as a whole. I focus on the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being of those entrusted to my care.
