About Donna

Experience: 3 yrs

Hello, I have many years experience with personal care of the elderly. I took care of my own mother for two years and managed her medication, appointments as well as her personal care. I currently work per Diem for BCARC in residential support where I help elderly and handicap in their home with personal assistance as well as laundry, cleaning and cooking. I am a retired high school teacher and have lived in Pittsfield for most of my life. I have lived in my own home for 34yrs. My children are all grown and I now live alone with 2 cats and 1 bird. I am a warm, enormously compassionate and caring individual with a good sense of humor. I hope this is enough to merit a phone call to set up a time for an interview, so you can get a better sense of my personality if I would fit with your needs. Thank you for your consideration.
