About Deirdre

Experience: 10 yrs

Making a positive impact on the lives of others is my daily goal. As a Certified Home Health Aide with 10 years of experience, I'm passionate about supporting the well-being and independence of adults and seniors. I provide respite care, live-in care, transportation, hospice services, and help with errands, shopping, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I am experienced in dementia care and medical management. My approach is patient, compassionate, and friendly. I adapt to changing routines, de-escalate stressful situations, and handle confusion with care. I communicate with families through written reports, verbal updates, and regular texts or phone calls. Respecting a care recipient's independence is paramount. I am also comfortable with pets. Helping families find peace of mind while ensuring the comfort and safety of their loved ones is work I find truly rewarding.
