Denise S.
My name is Denise, an avid lover of sports, nature, and an unrelenting animal enthusiast. I have over a decade of extensive experience in senior/health care, which includes working with patients with diagnoses of Alzheimer's, Parkinson's, and Dementia, among others. I have a unique knack for bringing a sense of comfort, normalcy, and joy to my patients' lives. I pride myself on possessing a full range of caregiving skills. From providing Oxygen Administration, Ambulation Assistance, Hoyer Lift, Bathing Assistance to Dressing Grooming assistance, Range of Motion Exercise, and Housekeeping. I also have experience in caring for patients with advanced needs, including Tube Feeding, Patient Positioning, and Catheter/ Colostomy Care. I will work in a clinical setting, home health care, and retirement homes. Owing to my love for travel and my flexible relocation prospects, I am capable of serving in various environments and cater to a diverse pool of patients. I am a non-smoker, an efficient swimmer, and I have a valid driver's license. This, coupled with the fact that I have a vehicle, allows me to provide additional services like errands, grocery shopping, escorting to appointments & planning visits. I am available for work during nights and evenings on weekdays and the whole day on Sundays, plus additional hours that fit in my schedule. My preferred living arrangement is live-out, and I am open to part-time employment schedules. I have raised 3 children of my children of my own, and can work well with children with disabilities. Furthermore, my educational background as a Caregiver / Companion and Home Support Worker equips me with the essential skills to offer top-notch care. My communication is primarily in English, and I am ready to undergo a police check if required. I am excited for the opportunity to provide compassionate care by leveraging my skills and experience while appreciating the uniqueness that every new day brings. Whether it's an exciting outing, a visit to friends and family, or quiet companionship at home, I am ready to be of help. Let's connect and see how best I can meet your needs!
