Elder Care in Mobile, Alabama

I'm an
Individual
My name is Carolann I have one daughter that is full of laughter and joy and I will be taking with me on the job. We just got back from Palmer AK where I provided care for 2 disable individual and the other lady physically disabled and seizures so 3 total in the house. Had medication to give did breakfast or dinner when others called out did shopping, outing on weekend if need. When I was young my mom had an elderly man that lived with us. Then she did one weekend a month with an elderly lady that i would go with her so I've been around this type of work for a bit. I have been working getting paid with disable adults for at least 10 years off and on. Worked with clients that had to wear diapers, had seizures. Clients that I had to physically restrain because they were very aggressive, hit themselves, bipolar, beginnings of dementia, clients that ate too much, clients that didn't eat at all. Bunch of different personalities. The reason for the off and on isn't because I'm flaky it is because I always had other job and would do this as fill in and on call on my off season I was a commercial diver in the gulf of Mexico and at one point did Nuclear outage plants. Work got so slow so I went to work for Huntington Ingalls as a dive and rigger. 2021 I had my baby then broke my foot then decided to quit working at Ingalls so I can finish my teaching program and open up a primary/ preschool so I went to Palmer Alaska to work where I worked off and on for years and she had a lot of stuff to do Because of being behind from covid. So as well as doing night shift and whatever else she asked we did a lot of maintenance. One project was for 1 of the girls couldn't walk very well and was blindish and we put in a (very big long) path for her.. Went for like 5ish months was doing the live in with my daughter of course. Back home had a contractor doing work for me to open up my business but he neglected to do his job destroyed and took my money and thus for I'm looking for a job for now while I still finish up school and fixing up the mess. One thing I can say is every place that I've worked absolutely appreciated me and not only liked me to work for them they enjoy me to work for them because they could have peace of mind what they asked would get done and they didn't want me to leave. I will give you every number of my pass employees and you will see that I take care of the needs very well not only for the client but also the boss as i know it is hard and stressful with hiring people so I try to go above and beyond. I think elderly's should be honored & given respect and a heart of thankfulness not treated as a burden
