Much of my career has been dedicated to the care of senior citizens. They have ranged from medically complex with multiple chronic conditions and medications, to brain impaired including confusion/dementia due to stroke, cancer, Alzheimers or trauma to providing respite care so a caregiver can take a break from the normal activities. I enjoy engaging seniors at what ever level they may present. I especially like to go outside with my charges. I have worked extensively in physical rehabilitation programs, and am comfortable with working with people in wheelchairs, who use walkers or canes, etc. I have worked with sensory impaired individuals as well (visually or hearing). I can feed individuals, including through g-tube and nasogastric tube. I believe engaging seniors in cognitive activity is extremely important to their mental well being, and that even a confused person can experience and learn something new. I want to help your loved one maintain the quality of life they so deserve.
