About Rachael

Experience: 10 yrs

Customer service is always what I've done. Serving a senior requires patience, sensitivity, and care to enable them to stay independent and keep their minds as youthful as they want to be. For many, their spouses, family, and friends have passed. I may not be able to take the pain away but making a cup of tea, being of company, keeping them in the warmth and comfort of their home, having dinner while watching a favorite TV show can keep their minds focus on happy, positive thoughts. I have been involved in caring for loved ones for 6 years and I'm currently seeking advancement in the Health Field. My flexibility is always willing to learn, improve and add to my abilities. My cases range from live in to 12 hour night shifts and also 9 to 5 day shifts. I am comfortable with pets as I have one. English is my only language and I speak it well. I am not a health freak, but I am conscious of what I eat. I do try to encourage clients of the importance of their health to themselves and others. I believe laughter can add years to life so games, movies, conversations, outdoor activities keep the mind young at heart and focused on more to come.

Rachael was a delight to work with. Eager to be helpful, bright, attentive to needs, caring, and engaged my husband in conversation and activity. (Our pup liked her, too!)
