Here's a little bit about me. My name is Elizabeth, but I prefer to be called Liz. I am a mother of 3 sons and a grandmother to 2 beautiful granddaughters, whom I adore. I also had another very important person in my life, my mother. I, personally took care of my mother for over 10 years. My mother suffered from mentalillness, diabetes, depression and obesity. I assisted her with daily activities, which included, bathing, dressing and medication reminders. I provided her with meals, washed her clothes, cleaned her room and assisted her with daily exercises. Although at times it was hard, I dedicated my time to giving back to my once then caregiver, provider and nurturer. My mom was my everything and providing the proper care she needed and making sure she was taken care of not only my duty and honor, it made me feel at ease, and gave her a sense of dignity. I did it with love and therefore, it never felt like a job. Rest assure that I will take care of your loved one like family....

I've been a caregiver for 10+ years as a CHHA . The reason why I became a caregiver was because of my mother she had become ill and needed home care so I decided to put my career on hold to help her during her time of illness. After she had passed I decided that helping others gave me a sense of fulfillment knowing that I wasthere for them as a companion and being there to help someone when I can. I have experience with early onset of Dementia and Alzheimer's. I assist patients with personal hygiene care, medication reminder, schedule doctor appointments, transportation to & from appointments. Errands/shopping. Prepare meals and recommend nutritional changes when needed. Light house cleaning, laundry, feeding, bathing/dressing. Staying physically active, walks, personal shopping. I will work with the person & family member to schedule out a daily planner that fits their loved ones comfort level....

I have been a caregiver for 15 years, I took care of my grandparent for so many years until God called them home. so I love taking of the elderly and people with less privilege. I do housekeeping; laundry, dishes, and etc, meal and medicine preparation, bathing (both bed and bathroom), feeding (both mouth and tube), assistingwith physical therapy/exercise. I am very experienced with using a Hoyer Lift so I am able to care for patients who are bedridden. No case is too big or too small for me. I aim to take care of my clients and respect them as if they were my own parents. I want them to feel as comfortable as possible. I would prefer to do live-in cases only, that way I can have a chance to bond with my patient. I have many references as well that can vouch for me and my work ethic. I hope to be hearing from you soon....

"Pamela was an amazing caregiver and companion for my elderly father! I can not recommend her highly enough. I knew right away when I spoke with her that she was responsible, reliable and empathetic. What I didn't know was how willing she was to be flexible andalways do what was in the best interests of my father. Pamela kindly discovered my father's interests and worked hard to have conversations with him about those topics to keep his brain working and entertained. She did a wonderful job taking care of his physical needs. When he had to go to the hospital, rehab and eventually an assisted living facility, she went to each of those places and continued to do her job in a kind and professional manner. As her role veered more toward being a companion, Pamela was my eyes and ears at my father's assisted living facility. She was always watching out, making sure he was being well cared for and was willing to speak up to those as the facility as needed. She kept me abreast on a daily basis of what was happening there and how my father's was doing. Do yourself a favor and hire Pamela for your loved one. You won't be sorry. ...

"Patricia worked for our family from February 2018 until March 2023 when my mom passed away. She was the reason why my mom was able to live as long as she did. My mom had Parkinson’s and was wheelchair-bound and had to be fed. Patricia would take care of her skin,give her baths, feed her, change her, and pretty much do everything for my mom. She was more than just a companion, she was a true member of the family. Even when the hospital she went to six months ago, left her with some bedsores, she worked with nurses to help heal them and keep them clean. She went above and beyond her caregiving services, and if I could meet her at 10 or 10, I would. She was invaluable to our family. She was in constant communication with us about things that she needed in the house to help my mom as well as things that could be improved for my dad‘s health as well. Even though she wasn’t there to take care of my dad, she always kept an eye on him and made us aware of anything that she observed that could help him or better him. I can not say enough about Patricia and she would still be with our family if it wasn’t for my mom‘s death. My mom went peacefully in her sleep the way that you always want a loved one to go. Clean, well feed, skin glowing and radiant. ...

"Whenever one is considering hiring a care giver for a loved one, there is always the concern of whether they will care for them like we have. When my parents became incapable of living independently, our family considered a care facility. They tried it for twomonths, and found they were very unhappy and wanted to go home and have a caregiver. We’ve had a few over the years, but as fate would have it, Jineen raised the bar to the level of family. In other words, she cared for both my mother and father with the love, empathy and care as if my folks were hers. In fact, I think they had come to feel Jineen was part of our family. In the beginning, it started as an 8 hour day and as they struggled with various illnesses (kidney disease with my father, dementia with my mother) Jineen transitioned to being their 24 hour caregiver, five days a week with relief on the other two days. From food preparation to doctor’s appointment to medication management, Jineen did it all, always keeping records and updating us on all developments. Jineen is a unique individual; smart, knowledgeable about the variety of medical issues and is very skilled on how to navigate our health care system. We were very lucky and blessed to have her in our lives and we will always be a part of hers. ...
