Deborah D. Care Companion in Sedalia, MO 65301

I have been caring for others for the last 30 years. I only require a 30 minute minimum if the client is within the 75238, 75218, 75214, or 75041 ZIP Codes. Also, I can do bi-weekly or monthly billing for longer term clients, if desired, after the first 2 weeks of service has been regularly paid. This can help out-of-town family members who are paying for a loved one’s needs.

I have much experience with attending to the needs of elderly, and sick. Some have been paid positions, others have been Just loving care of family and friends. I was the caregiver for my mother, who had cancer and succumbed to it in 2012. I helped extensively in managing her appointments, medications, transportation, advocating for her, overseeing rehab and nursing care, personal affairs such as bill paying and legal transactions, as well as home and pet care.

I also helped take care of my grandmother, who had regular dialysis for years, and passed away at 93 yrs old. In addition, I have references for the prior care of a friend's very special needs son, for whom I provided extensive respite care over several years.

For the 3 yrs I've worked helping a 95 year old senior who has mild dementia and partial deafness. In addition to dressing, shopping and transportation needs, I refill her weekly med box and assist with laundry & organizing as needed, working directly for her power of attorney to do any duties necessary.

For 13 years I have been a Crime Watch volunteer in our neighborhood, and am a regular neighborhood pet sitter as well. After 20 years of being a homeschool teacher, my children are in college, are getting married, and I am now free to take on extra jobs.

Thank you very much, and I look forward to working for you if you need me.
