I have been a dedicated caregiver with a 20 years experience to elderly patient with Alzheimer/Dementia. I am friendly, cheerful, with a dependable personality to make a real differences in the lives of individual as well as their family. I was employed by a family from 10/2002- 4/2014 as a full time live in caregiver to their mother and as they have said I was a Godsend. My patient fractured her leg in 2002 and was on rehabilitation when I got hired by them. She developed Dementia and needed more extensive care as years passed by. I devoted myself to my patient to improve the quality of her life. I assumed full time care in all aspects of her life including bathing, dressing, feeding, exercising and cleaning. At the end of my patients life I rarely left her side. She was bedridden for her last 18 months and because of my loving care she never had any bedsore or any skin problems. The hospice doctor and nurses marveled their patient's condition. My patient was always clean, comfortable

In June of 2018, I was stressed out and upset when searching for a caregiver for my aging mother (then 83) and her husband (then 87). Their wishes were to remain in their home, but they needed daily support from the minute they woke up until they went to sleep. I was beyond lucky to connect with Bea, who cared for them for three and a half years until my mother's recent passing. She's extremely compassionate, completely trustworthy, very organized, and has an infectious joyful personality. Bea took on the responsibility of administering medications, preparing and feeding meals, assisting in bathing and dressing, and driving them to doctor appointments when needed. Every time I went to the house, I'd find my mother and her husband well taken care of and happily engaged with her. Bea became my mother's best friend. In the weeks leading up to my mother's death, Bea was the one who understood her every unspoken need, and who was there for her in a way my family and I couldn't be.
