Julie’s Bio
I am a retired middle/high school educator. I have been a caregiver since high school and continued caregiving on a part time basis while teaching. I have now started a new chapter in my life focusing on just caregiving. I believe that private caregivers allow family members with new care needs to stay in their homes and remain with family members. I feel strongly that the home/family environment is the best for the emotional well being of both client and family.
I have many years of caregiving experience including current clients. I am very proficient working with the medical profession and often take clients to dr appointments and advocate for them if they are unable to, I then follow up with written summaries of dr visits to the rest of family members.
I am extremely confident and comfortable with maintaining and dispensing daily medications. I am a meticulous detail person. I have an upbeat and energetic disposition. I have a newer car and excellent driving record and am able to transport clients to appointments, grocery shopping and social events. I am also able to prepare nutritious meals/snacks.
My previous and current experience involved working with dementia clients, physically disabled, quadriplegic and mentally disabled clients.
I not only have extensive experience but I am a person who has initiative and am good at anticipating a client's needs. I also have an abundance of common sense and critical problem solving skills.
I come from a large, close knit family. I have a special needs brother and that was instrumental in becoming a compassionate and empathetic person. I also have a lively sense of humor. Learned that from having so many siblings.
I am worth my hourly rate because I bring a lot to the table. I'm flexible and willing to go above and beyond for a client and their family. Let me help you keep your loved one in their home environment and let me enrich their life with my genuine and compassionate nature. Thank you for your time.
