About Colleen

Experience: 9 yrs

Bringing peace of mind to families is what I strive for. As a Certified Home Health Aide with nine years of experience, I offer compassionate and detail-oriented care. My college degree complements my hands-on expertise in respite care, live-in care, personal care, and more. I am adept at managing medications, providing mobility assistance, and adapting to the unique needs of individuals, including those with dementia. First Aid Training ensures I'm prepared for any situation. I prioritize understanding each person's history and preferences. I handle confusion, agitation, or behavioral changes with a calm and patient approach. I always follow the family's preferred communication method. I am comfortable with pets. I look forward to discussing how I can support your family.

There are no words to express the depth of the gratitude that our family has for the level of loving, compassionate care that Colleen wrapped around our parents and our whole family during a most difficult time. Upon being hired, Colleen worked to establish a positive relationship with both parents. They were in their nineties, both with dementia and still wanting to be independent. She listened to our vision for care, incorporated her vast knowledge and experience and created a team of caregivers to provide loving, thoughtful and incredibly safe care to our parents during their last chapters. She communicated well to all team members, agencies providing services and the family from the beginning through to the end and beyond. She organized the household to provide the constantly changing, needed in home care. She prepared special meals and attended to all aspects of their care. With Colleen we were able to provide the highest level of care possible and maintain a calm, peaceful home for our parents. She was a blessing beyond my prayers. Our family will always remember that she cared for our parents, as if they were her own. Please feel welcome to call me if you would like more information. Colleen can give you my number.
