I have no problem doing the tasks required in taking care of the elderly, I know how to give a bed bath, turn a bed bound patient to prevent bedsores, and many other things, including check blood pressure, and insulin levels and giving insulin shots. I have worked with a diabetic patient so I understand how to care for them and even how to cook for a Diabetic and Renal Diet :)!   While not formally trained ( I took courses at Kaplan University for Medical Assistant but have not obtained my degree as of yet) I have years of hand on experience and a heart for the people I care for.  SKILL HIGHLIGHTS: Understands mobility assistance needs Able to lift over 80 pounds Understands medical procedures   Trained in grooming and bathing assistance Calm and level-headed under duress Quick problem solver General housekeeping ability Valid AL driver's license Great cook Natural born caretaker Homebody

Rebecca Mattocks took loving care of our Mom for several years which made her able to stay in her own home until she slipped away in her sleep on Jan 1, 2016. Becky made sure she was eating properly and taking her meds as prescribed. She is an excellent cook and caregiver. I highly recommend her as a caregiver.
