My name is Gracie and I am a 24-year-old dedicated caregiver with two years of experience providing compassionate care to patients in home health care settings, retirement homes, and clinics/hospitals. I have efficiently dealt with a varied spectrum of patient diagnoses including congestive heart failure, Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, dementia, and many more, acquainting me with the intricacies of providing specialized care according to the unique needs of every individual. I live in Kanata and am actively seeking employment as a Caregiver/Companion or Personal Support Worker. Luckily, I have a flexible schedule, with wide-ranging availability spreading across Tuesday to Thursday mornings, afternoons, evenings, and nights, along with Monday nights. I am trained and comfortable in assisting with all aspects of patient care, from common tasks like meal planning/preparation, housekeeping, laundry, patient positioning, oxygen administration, to more specific needs such as heavy patient lifting/transfer, bedpan assistance, hoyer lift operation, palliative care, Parkinson's care, catheter/colostomy care, etc. On top of that, I am comfortable in dealing with children with disabilities—a testament to my patient demeanor and problem-solving abilities. A certified Personal Support Worker (PSW), I am trained in a variety of procedures and have a deep understanding of privacy and dignity in patient care. My ultimate goal is to help patients maintain their health and happiness in the comforts of their own homes. I stand ready to start immediately, ushering in care and compassion into your loved ones' lives.

I currently have over 2 years of experience working in various retirement homes, long-term care, and home care settings, so I am comfortable and knowledgeable about many different types of care and settings.
