Kristian’s Bio

Hi, how are you? :)
My name is Kris and I am 26 years old. I currently live in Poughkeepsie. My father was 74 and passed away 3 years ago. He was my best friend. Before he passed, his health was poor and he was unable to shop, cook, clean, etc. The last few years of his life he couldnt shower on his own, walk without a walker, or breathe without an oxygen tube. He was a heavy smoker and for that reason I have never smoked cigarettes. I spent a lot of my time care giving for him and helping around the house. I am extremely familiar with medication, transferring of germs, importance of cautiounsess as to prevent falling and injury. I can shop and bring food to him or cook for him, I can spend time with him and listen to him and be a companion as well as a helper. I believe this is the most natural thing for me to do. If theres anything I know for sure its how to care for an elderly man, being I was raised by one. I will happily take this position and give this man the best care I can possibly give, being thorough and specific to all of his needs. I currently work in the hospitality industry but am looking for work that better suits my personality and something that makes a difference. I would love to meet and see if I am the right pick for you and your father. I look forward to speaking! Thanks so much for your time.
