Individual
Personal Profile: Hi there my name is Joanita. I believe my mission is to make difference in people's life. For the better, of course! I have noticed that because i feel so happy, when i have the opportunity to help others. My first experience was taking care of my father, when he was diagnosed with complete failure of his kidneys. He had to undergo dyalisis three times a week for 4 years. I had to ask for a leave from my job to help my mother take care of him. Six years after my father passed away, it was my mother's turn, and i also had the privilege of taking care of her in every single task. I used not only to drive them both to the doctor, but i was also present during the appointment to clarify any doubts, and be sure about the administration of and other treatments. At home i would cook the menu suggested by the dietician, feed and bath, and put to sleep in a comfortable and clean bed. Beyond tasks connected directly with the senior needs, I can also provide a light cleaning, buying groceries, paying bills and other tasks, according to the needs. From my personal traits I would stress my persistence, the willing to learn, and always do my best whatever it takes. Besides that, i consider myself an easy going person, a self starter, polite, educated (i have a business degree and currently studying medical assistant), good-humored person, but respectful to the settled rules and my clients'limitations. As you can notice i can communicate pretty well in English, but I can speak Spanish and Portuguese as well. Although many other people offer similar services, and maybe ask for cheaper wages, what really makes me the best choice is the love, attention and enthusiasm that i add to my job. It is widely known that seniors go through depression, and sometimes have a feeling of abandonment. That is why i am completely sure my senior client will always feel happy and safe with me by his/her side. It all depends on my client's physical or mental conditions, but we can experience different activites to give them some joy, such as dancing, listening to their favorite old songs, see those old photos that bring so many memories, listen and talk to them, play table games, take walks, watch movies together, attend a painting class, do some crosswords, watch them prepare their favorite dish, join them in theur visit to friends or siblings. I am certified in First Aids and CPR, and also available to start immediately. Just to finish, i have personal transportation available. How To Contact Me: Send me a message via this website and I'll reply within 5 days.
