About Michael
Experience: 4 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
2007 to 2012: I took care of my mother-in-law who lived with us in her old ages; she had dementia and several health complications. 2018 to 2020: I watched a lovely husband and wife. He was in his mid 90's, and she was in her late 80's with dementia. I would dress them, take care of their medications, and prepare three meals a day. They received regular showers and dental hygiene care. We also went for car rides and went to the park. Upon request, I would help with house cleaning and laundry. 2020 to 2021: I provided care to an elderly individual who is 93. I helped with daily needs such as giving medications on-schedule, bathing and dressing, oral hygiene, shaving, meal preparation, and general house keeping duties. Due to my clients Parkinson's disease, I have learned several skills to assist with mobility and transportation to appointments. I'm a great companion to individuals under my care, and we spend a lot of time playing simple games to keep the mind and body active.

Michael was the primary caretaker of my father and step mother, My Dad passed Nov 2019 and he stayed on and took care of my step mom until her situation needed to be changed. He treated them like they were his family. My father had a skin cancer behind is ear, Michael was compliment by the Doctor because of his great care. Dad was able to hold his dignity till the end. My step mom had a special bond with Mike and they had a playful relationship which she relied on. She unfortunately has Alzheimer's and was challenging for all us but Mike's easy manner allowed her to remain calm. I highly recommend him, I truly grateful for his wonderful care of my parents.
