About Deidra
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have 20 year's of experience in adult and senior care. I do my very best to be as dependable, reliable, compassionate and caring as I can be. I can help with meal prep, medication, and chores around the house. I've worked extensively with elders who have Parkinson's, Alzheimer's, and Dementia. I've also learned how to build treatment plans for patients with many kinds of physical and mental impairments. I'm passionate about making people as comfortable as they possibly can be, and enriching their lives in any way that I can. I'm also CPR Certified.

Deidra has worked for our family for just over a year, caring for our bedridden 89 year old mom who has progressive dementia. Her responsibilities include personal care/hygiene, preparing and serving meals, monitoring vital signs, medication administration, and managing continuous oxygen. She has a positive, relaxed and confident demeanor, and is a very conscientious and compassionate caregiver. She has been more than reliable, filling in on short notice, as backup and in emergencies..whenever we needed her. Very grateful for her!!
