Yrs Experience

My name is Laura and I have been passionately involved in senior/health care for over 17 years. Initially, I started my career at Northwood, where I worked for nearly 7 years before venturing into private caregiving in 2014. Ever since then, I have been working with Alzheimer's and dementia patients, providing compassionate and committed caregiver support. I also have hands-on experience with younger individuals, dealing with cognitive and physical challenges. In recent years, my work extended to providing care to a quadriplegic man, which gave me diverse expertise in patient handling techniques. My working skill set is extensive, including, but not limited to oxygen administration, ambulation assistance, heavy patient lifting and transfer, hoyer lift operations, personal hygiene assistance, range-of-motion-exercise conduction, administrative duties, Alzheimer/Dementia care and many more. I am also experienced in providing palliative care. I have a Personal Support Worker certificate, and I am certified for both First Aid and CPR. My experience covers a wide range of patient diagnoses, including Quad/Paraplegic Care, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, Dementia, Cancer, Stroke, Diabetes and many others. Regarding my personal qualities, I am caring, loyal, punctual, full of energy and an unabashed lover of life. I am looking for both Full-Time and Part-Time roles as a Caregiver/Companion or Personal Support Worker. I am available to work on all weekdays (Monday through Friday) during the morning, mid-day and evening. Considering my preferred work setting, I excel in a Home Health Care environment where I can provide dedicated attention and care to patients. Although my services are predominantly Live-Out, I am more than prepared to be flexible according to the needs of the individual and family that I assist.

My name is Laura I have been a cca since 2007, I worked at northwood for about 6 years than went private in 2014, I have worked with the elderly and younger adults as well. Currently I work with a quadriplegic who is 52, I am looking for 30-40 hrs a week.
