About Sandy

Looking for a full-time Senior care position to make your family member feel comfortable, healthy and loved! My previous experiences with senior care are as follows: I spent many years assisting in the care of all four of grandparents, each with different health issues. I also spent 1 year caring for a Parkinson's patient. I helped with exercises/walks, cooking meals, baking, cleaning and organizing the entire home, making sure meds were taken properly, grocery store shopping, library, doctor's appointments or whatever else was needed on a daily basis. In each experience with the elderly, it was my goal to make them comfortable and able to reside in their own home! Whether it be to lend a listening ear to making sure there environment was "safe, clean and cozy". If possible I try to keep the mind and body in a healthy state, from taking walks to eating healthy and nutritional meals. Sometimes it is as simple as just "being there" for them. Being raised in a loving/hardworking farm community in the Midwest, it made me the person I am today: going out of my way to make the most of each day, from caring for a stranger, to making that person feel like a part of "my family".
