Elder Care in Houston, Texas

I'm an
Individual
I have been working with seniors and disabled individuals since I was 19 years old in the long term care facilities, then a few years later in home care which is my favorite type of setting to help keep my client in their home happy and healthy as possible. My career started from having began from having a church grandmother who I loved to help on her 20 acre farm in the Ozark Mountains in the community of Buford, near Mountain Home, Arkansas who was my hero. Grandpa also worked in the shop with all kinds of things as a welder, electrician, inventor, and my favorite bible study person that started me out on this adventure of faith. I have extensive training over the years starting with 32 hour nurse aide course in 1980, then I was put through a Certified Nurse Aide course in a hospital in 1990, then in 1991 I moved to California where I had a 150 hour Certified Nurse Aide Course, later living in Michigan I went to the Lansing Community College, Lansing, Michigan, to take an Acute Care Nurse Aide course, 4.5 credit hours, 4.0 GPA, getting my Competency Evaluated Level 2 accreditation from the state of Michigan, Then in 2006 I took another Certified Nurse Aide course in Texas. I currently am accredited as a Certified Nurse Aide in Kentucky, Ohio, and Texas. I have a resume with ten year of employment experience, and references. Please feel free to contact me at (513)293..., my smart phone, or my email [email protected] I am actively looking for clients, have worked with all types of diagnosis, and situations to help you keep your loved ones safe and healthy in their homes. I have all the skills associated with a nurse aide and then some with yard work, livestock and pet care, being very flexible to keep my clients active with their interest.

Recommendations

Darrell Whitfield is a very knowledgeable and caring caretaker. He was instrumental in helping my Father improve in a very long road of recovery. Would definitely be my first call if the need were to arise again for a caretaker.
