Making a difference in the lives of adults and seniors is what I'm passionate about. For the past eight years, I've been a Certified Home Health Aid, providing hospice services, personal care, light housekeeping, meal preparation, and mobility assistance. I adapt to changing routines, handle confusion, and incorporate memory care activities. I am CPR certified. I offer families regular updates via text or phone call, and I always follow your preferred communication method. As a compassionate and detail-oriented caregiver, I prioritize respecting your loved one's independence. I look forward to bringing my experience and calm demeanor to your family. I also work alongside other caregivers to provide the support and coverage for your loved one's.
Verna first met when I fractured my foot So bad I was told I my never walk again. Verna was recommended by a friend whom Verna had care for. As I got to know her and experience first hand her patience, knowledge and professionalism, I had made the right choice. She is always On time always going, above and beyond putting up with my sstubborn self. I drove her crazy though she would never let on. Over a year of rehab. She was there to guide me and keep me focused. When doctors insisted I was not walking again she never gave up . I walk today because of her. I truly walk because of Verna During My recover my body said why not test Verna have stroke. It was Verna whom noticed that I was stroking out. Verna immediately got me to the hospital. Through the stoke rehab She has been with me every step of the way. Verna cares It's not just a job for her. I'm a United states Navy veteran . Verna and her family have become dear friends. By the way . I do walk still though not well. Yet that is only be Verna never lets you give up.
