I have experience assisting people in their homes with the following health conditions; Cancer (many types, including the hospice stage), COPD, Edema, Emphysema, Heart Disease, MS, Parkinson's Disease, Stroke survivors, In addition, I have extensive experience with people that are Wheelchair bound, and/or require walking aides such as walkers or canes, and have one full time Summer job taking care of a quadriplegic. Basically anything, my clients needed a help with in their home, I did which included; Menu planning, grocery shopping, cooking and/or light meal prep & after meal clean-up, house cleaning, laundry, personal care, grooming (such as hair washing/setting and/or blow drying, make-up, transfers for those bound to wheelchairs, driving to appointments and/or errands not previously described.
