About Kelly

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Hello, my name is Kelly and I've been in the nursing field over 12 years! I can provide assistance with skilled care as well as assisted living, including meal preparation, light cleaning, and help getting to appointments. I've worked in nursing facilities as well as home health companies and something I've noticed is that they don't provide or offer real quality care, I'm not talking about that "cookie cutter care" where they provide the same care to all but rather the care tailored to individuals based on their needs likes and wants. I pride myself on treating my clients as the unique individuals they are, adapting to their preferences as only a real family member would, because under my care that is exactly what they are, My family. I love helping others the way my grandmother helped me growing up, she was and is compassionate and loving and that's how she raised me to be. I got into nursing to help my grandmother when she was ill and from there I decided I wanted to help all

Kelly is incredibly caring, thoughtful, attentive and kind. She cared for my grandmother for two years, including hospice care until she passed away. She was like family to us and was so sweet with my grandmother. Kelly has 14 years of experience (including hospice care). She took care of my grandmother who was paralyzed on the right side after her stroke and had dementia. Kelly kept a journal for two years in which she wrote daily summaries about my grandmother’s condition/overview of daily care. She was gentle and loving when she braided my grandmother’s hair, bathed/optioned her, transferred her from bed to wheelchair, and changed her. She sought out things my grandmother enjoyed (like Indian music which she played for her), videos, and photos from my grandmother’s favorite photo albums. My grandmother could not understand English after her stroke, and Kelly learned some Bengali (Indian language) words to be able to speak with her. In the winter, she built a tiny snowman for my grandmother so she could enjoy the snow. Kelly shared photos and videos she took of my grandmother that are now very precious to us. She went above and beyond and even did additional cleaning for us. I am so grateful that we had Kelly with us until my grandmother’s last day. In the end, it was often Kelly who successfully fed my grandmother and got her to eat and drink. She paid attention to my grandmothers quirks and preferences, and really loved her in such a gentle and genuine way. I am so grateful we had Kelly and I strongly recommend her as a caregiver.
