Patricia’s Bio

Hello, let me introduce myself. My name is Patty and I have 10 years of experience as a care companion. I'm compassionate, reliable, and highly attentive to my clients. Throughout the years, I have cared for very special people, all of whom are very dear to me. I have experience with hoyer lifts, bathing, dressing, grooming, and medicine management. My additional duties as a caregiver include shopping, transportation, light housekeeping, and homemaking tasks, such as laundry, changing bed linens, and planning and preparing meals. I provide assistance with moving in and out of bed and also assistance with walkers and wheelchairs. I accompany clients to doctors' offices and other trips outside of the home, providing transportation, assistance, and companionship. I entertain, converse with, and real aloud to patients to keep them mentally healthy and alert. I administer prescribed oral medications under written direction of a physician, or as directed by a home care nurse or family member. I maintain records of patient care, condition, progress, and problems, if any arise. I would love an opportunity to set up an interview to sit down and discuss your family's needs and my qualifications. If you feel that I may be a good fit for your family, please contact me. I have great references, which are available upon request. It would be great to hear from you. Thank you.

My two year old son, Thomas, loves Patty. Patty is fun, loving, caring, and patient. She has lots of experience as a nanny. She finds opportunities to create activities both indoor and outdoor to help a child to learn and grow.
