About Lavenita

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I love and am passionate about this kind of job because I have been taking care of my grandparent since I was in high school until they passed away in 1990 and one in 1991. I continue to take care of my sick father from 1993 to 1995 then he passed away. Since I moved to the United States, this is the only type of job I've done. It brought me such a great memories of my beloved grandparents and also my dad because they were so dear to me and they still are when I looked at the face of the elderly. I always love to work and fulfill the needs of these people. I have cared for a couple of ALS patients, several dementia, hallucination, cancers, Alzheimer's, and other illness. I also have completed my training with a certificate on Care Giver and also complete a training for CNA. I do also have a CPR card. My family and I are also fully vaccinated.

Lavanita is a very experienced, caring, punctual and innovative when working with a dementia parent. She transferred and dressed mom gently, Not only could get mom to eat and drink well. She brought her treats and sang to her or played music while she cared for her. Very excellent all around caregiver.
