About Lynn

Experience: 10 yrs

Helped patients manage their daily activities, transport patients to doctor's appointments, schedule appointments, monitor medications, change colostomy bags and handle household responsibilities including meals, payment of bills. The last patient I cared for had advanced stage Alzheimer's. She lived at her daughter's home and she was in my complete care other than Sundays. I woke her, dressed her, stayed with her the entire day and put her to bed. Even though she had dementia she was able to do crossword puzzles with my assistance. I read the newspaper to her every day, novels and we also played cards. She was religious so we would say prayers at night while I held her hand. We had spa days where I would do her nails and braid her hair and give her massages. Every day I dressed her so she looked pretty. I wanted to give her the respect she deserved. We had a wonderful relationship. She even preferred me over others. She passed in peace and with dignity.
