About Kiersten

Experience: 10 yrs

With a decade dedicated to enriching the lives of adults and seniors, I'm passionate about fostering their independence and overall well-being. My background includes a college degree and extensive experience in home health. I offer respite care, transportation, and support with errands, shopping, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. I am also experienced in dementia care, medical management, mobility assistance, and physical activity. I am CPR and First Aid certified. I adapt to changing routines, de-escalate stressful situations, and handle confusion with patience and empathy. I prioritize earning trust when connecting with care recipients. I communicate with families through written daily reports, regular updates via text or phone call, and I always follow their preferred method. I have a car and am comfortable with pets. I became a caregiver because I wanted to make a positive impact on people's lives. I am patient, compassionate, friendly, and approachable.
