About Olivia
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have worked with seniors for over 20 years and have always knew what I wanted to do since I was 14 years old. I have been employed in many nursing homes and assistant living facilities. I am currently an activities Director in an Assisted living Home and I just love working with the elderly. I am hard working, friendly, outgoing, compassionate, caring and understanding. I am seeking part time employment. I also have experience with Alzheimer disease/dementia individuals. My tasks include light cooking, cleaning, driving individuals to appointments, shopping, helping with laundry and companionship. My hobbies include, traveling, concerts, animals/pets, movies, shopping, garage sales, computers, games and more. I also have a bachelors degree in sociology from SUNY Albany and I have my masters in Gerontology from Umass Boston. Thank you for reading my profile and I hope to hear from you!

Olivia provides companion care for my 87 year old father during mid - late stages of Alzheimer's. Somehow she managed to keep him engaged and got him to participate in games and activities that were not in his nature. Keeping his mind active and they became great buddies. Olivia provided companionship, activities, kept him active and safe! She's a lovely person that I highly recommend.
