About Ruth

Experience: 10 yrs

Making a difference in someone's life is what I strive for every day. As a Certified Nursing Assistant and Certified Home Health Aide with a college degree, I've spent the last 16years supporting adults and seniors with compassion. My approach involves patience, empathy, and understanding each person's unique history and preferences. I provide services such as personal care, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and dementia care. I'm also experienced in de-escalating stressful situations and incorporating memory care activities. I communicate with families through daily reports and verbal updates, always following their preferred method. I have CPR Training and First Aid Training, plus I can provide respite, live-in, transportation, and hospice services. I would love to bring my experience and caring nature to your family.

I am writing to express my sincere appreciation for the exceptional care Ruth provided for my loved ones. Her companionate and professional assistance made an immense difference during a very difficult period for our family. Her level of emotional and understanding went far beyond her assigned duties and meant the world to us. In addition to Ruth outstanding personal qualities, we were consistently impressed by her skills and professionalism. She was always punctual and reliable, and her care giving tasks were performed with great attention to details. She has a true gift for the work. Her kindness and humor created a comfortable environment for our family member, and Ruth often had away of making her smile, even on a bad day. Without reservation, I highly recommend Ruth to any family or agency seeking a reliable and compassionate caregiver.
