About Ruby

Experience: 10 yrs

My name is Rugiatu, commonly called "Ruby." I am a Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN) with 18 years of experience in pediatric and geriatric nursing with various patients and their families in the home setting. I am highly skilled in the use of ventilators, tracheostomy, G-tube, suctioning care, blood pressure monitoring, glucose checks and diabetic care and insulin administration. I take great delight in providing excellent patient care, including bathing, grooming, personal hygiene, as well as patient and family teaching in basic home care skills. In my practice, I strive to be compassionate, respectful, trustworthy, and reliable in dealing with patients and their families. I respect diversity in the workplace, and embrace other people's belief systems, religion, and values irrespective of my own individual beliefs and religious practice.

I am writing to enthusiastically recommend Ruby as a caregiver. Ruby worked for my mother in Hagerstown, Md from May 15, 2024 to January 2, 2026. We enjoyed working with Ruby for the past year. She has consistently demonstrated exceptional skills and a strong work ethic. Her expertise as a caregiver has been priceless to my mother. One of her greatest strength is her ability to perform all her duties in a professional manner. She’s highly organized, detailed-oriented, and possesses excellent problem-solving skills. Her dedication to her work is evident in her consistently delivering high quality caregiver results even under tight schedules. I am confident that Ruby will always be a great addition to any family who hires her as a caregiver. She’s a highly motivated and talented individual who is eager to go beyond her work schedule. I will rehire Ruby over and over again if the need arises. With Ruby you will be getting an optimistic, enthusiastic and an all around worker and I am pleased to give Ruby my best recommendations. Sincerely, Teddy
