About Karla

Experience: 3 yrs

My love for working with the elderly and making a difference in someone's life is what drives me as a caregiver. I spent 12 years in a Hospital Rehab and Senior Living Facility as a salon manager and Cosmetologist. This led me to my current caregiving career. My many years of experience have solidified my passion for supporting the well-being and independence of adults and seniors. I strive to create a comfortable environment, and I'm known for my patient, compassionate, and friendly approach. I communicate regularly with families through written reports, verbal updates, and texts or phone calls. I'm experienced in adapting to changing routines, de-escalating stressful situations, and handling confusion or agitation. I can assist with transportation, errands, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I have some college education, and I'm certified in CPR and First Aid. Knowing I can bring a little ease and joy to someone's day makes this work incredibly rewarding.

Karla was great at looking out for my father who had Alzheimer's. She worked with him for almost a year and was even with him when he passed away at an inpatient care facility. It was great having someone professional and reliable to look out for my father as I live 3.5 hours away from him. She also helped to manage the house as he lived by himself. She has some formal training from working in care facilities in Pennsylvania and was able manage the agitation that often accompanies Alzheimer's very well. I highly recommend.
