My name is Maddalen, and I am a dedicated and compassionate health care professional currently in Mississauga and with over 35 years of experience in the service industry and medical care. In the last couple of years, my career has developed into becoming an elderly companion. I've had solid exposure and hands-on experiences interacting with people across all ages, specially senior citizens. My past roles have also involved providing aid and support to family members with terminal illnesses and brain injuries.
I can confidently perform a range of duties including laundry, meal planning and preparation, grocery shopping, running errands, and washing dishes. Having been in a medical clinical practice for more than 6 years, I have dealt with various diagnoses such as Cancer, Dementia, Hearing Impairment, Congestive Heart Failure, Alzheimer's, Stroke, Diabetes, Arthritis and more.
Apart from my excellent care-giving skills, I also enjoy sharing my proficiency in languages like English, Italian, Spanish and French. I have earned my college degree and I am continuously eager to learn new things everyday. An added bonus is my ability to cook, a talent appreciated by many and can be quite useful in my care-giving role.
Now that my three ambitious daughters have moved out of the GTA, my schedule has become highly flexible. I am available from Monday to Saturday, during the mornings and middle of the day. I am ready to start immediately, seeking both Full-Time and Part-Time positions, preferably in a home health care set up with Live-Out arrangements.
Throughout my career, I’ve always aimed to provide the highest level of care and attention. I truly love to work with the elderly, thrive on their stories, experiences and wisdom. I am excited to bring my specialty in elderly companion care to a new role, where I can continue being of service to others.
