This is the background check we require for all caregivers.
Experience: 10 yrs
Hello, My name is Kristen. I've been a licensed CNA since 2009 but have worked with the elderly since before that. I have worked for agencies but I found working privately is what I find more rewarding. I treat my patients as I would want my parents to be cared for. I have my patients do what they can within their limits as to promote some independence but am there to assist also. I love to listen to stories of times they remember when things were different. The elderly have some great stories sometimes they just need someone to listen. I am a non-smoker and am very patient. I have plenty of references from my patients loved ones. I have my own car and don't mind taking your loved one to a appointment at a doctors or just out for errands. I look forward to my next adventure. Thank you for reading Kristen

Kristen knew how to make my dad smile. She had such a nice demeanor with him - she knew when to joke around with him and when to be calm. She gave him great care and was extremely dependable and flexible. She really became part of the family. It was wonderful to be able to leave our sweet dad with someone who we really trusted, someone who he enjoyed.
