About David

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hi, I'm David, CNA from Bloomington. I have 10yrs experience & I really enjoy it. I started at MN Masonic Home for 3yrs in the TCU, Transitional Care Unit. I learned a lot there, working with all sorts of people with different ailments. It was a great place to learn & build my skills, plus a highly regarded, great facility in general. My experience is quite vast I'd say, from all ADLs & cares to calling doctors & nurses about issues, keeping calendars/schedules in order, driving to & from appointments, helping with therapies- PT, OT & speech therapy, medication management, & much more. I also have a great deal of experience with dementia/Alzheimer's, Parkinson's & many other ailments/diseases. I see my job as a mixture of caregiver (primarily) & personal assistant type work- driver, cook, housekeeper, friend, & whatever else I can help with. I always aim to provide as much value as one could in my role & I pride myself on that. Feel free to reach out anytime! All the best, -David

I am incredibly grateful for the care David provided for my father, who was in his 70s and battling Parkinson's Disease and moderate mobility and memory challenges. As my father’s condition progressed, he required more assistance than my mother could manage on her own. David stepped in, spending 2-3 days a week at my parents' home, offering invaluable support. He helped set up my dad's medication pump each morning, administered oral medications four times a day, and managed a range of other responsibilities, including meal preparation, errands, and transportation to physical therapy, fitness classes, and other appointments. David was consistently reliable, responsive, and incredibly thoughtful. He showed great perceptiveness toward my father’s physical and emotional needs, always approaching each task with care and respect. He also handled my mother, who was beginning to show signs of early onset Alzheimer's, with great sensitivity and understanding. I cannot thank David enough for his professionalism, compassion, and dedication. He truly made a difference in our family’s life during a difficult time.
