Experience: 20 yrs
I am certified as a PCA(personal care aide) with over 15 years experience between Nursing Homes, Hospitals and Home Care. I have also worked with Hospice Care. I love working with the eldery and hearing their stories and helping them be as independent as possible. I have experience with Dementia, Parkinson's and Diabetes. I can assist with showering/bathing, hygiene, light housework, light meal prep and cooking, and getting out into the community. I also love animals.
Desiree took care of my husband for several years and we absolutely loved her. He needed full hands on care after having a stroke. She has excellent skills and knowledge for all of his care needs. Her positive energy raised his spirits. He always lit up when she arrived. She kept our care supplies stock and organized. She did grocery shopping, meal planning, and cooking. She accompanied him on many outings and doctor appointments. She’s highly intelligent and applies it to the tasks at hand.
