About Karen
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I'd describe myself as kind, calm, patient, understanding, compassionate, and dependable. I know how important companionship is for seniors and those who need care. I am trained in CPR, wound care, and first aid. I am very knowledgeable about sterile procedures. I was a hands-on caretaker for both my mother and aunt through their final years at home (over 10 years), which included home hospice care. In my spare time I rescue dogs, and I am comfortable with all kinds of pets. My skills include helping with bathing, dressing, general mobility, transportation to appointments, shopping, cooking, cleaning, and exercising. I am skilled in the use of hoyer lifts, wheelchairs, pumps, and administering medication/shots. I have experience with patients who have alzheimers or dementia.

Karen is very experienced working with seniors giving them excellent care. She is very dependable. She’s very good at giving her clients respect at all time. I think she would be a wonderful senior caregiver and would benefit your company. Karen has been in the Caregiving sector for quite a while. Her bedside manner is outstanding. I really can’t say enough about her that II haven’t already said. She was wonderful to my Marvin and helped me help myself.
