Kirsten T. Care Companion in Bradenton, FL 34202

I am an active, non-smoker with over fifteen years of care giving experience. This includes supporting people diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy, Parkinson's, dementia, Alzheimer's, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, and Autism.

I relocated to Florida to care for my father diagnosed with Alzheimer's. This, and my previous experience as a caregiver has given me a deep understanding of providing supportive and gentle care, while being sensitive to the importance of autonomy for those I am providing care.

Some of the services I provide are: companion care, medication reminders, feeding, meal preparation (special diet), exercise, grooming assistance, errands, light housekeeping, transportation (medical and errands). Documented daily schedule, including mood and cognitive observations.

Previous experience in administration of cough assist machine, Bi-Pap respiratory system, Bolus feeding via Mic-Key feeding tube.

I have a SF-85 NACI clearance (National Agency Check with Inquires), a level 2 background check, CPR certification and first aid training. I am up to date on all vaccinations.
