Elder Care in Columbus, Ohio

I'm an
Individual
Hi! I'm Carmal. I live in Columbus, OH, and I love old people! About me: My passion for providing exceptional care to elderly clients has roots in my childhood. When I was 7, my parents felt called move across the country in order to take care of my grandparents for what would be the last 20 years of their lives. And so it became our family mission. I learned from a young age that caregiving requires substantial creativity, patience, and sacrifice--sure, it's lots of work, but that work is accompanied by irreplaceable joy, fun, learning, and friendship. My childhood experience blossomed into a full-fledged passion as an adult. Over the years, I've provided direct eldercare services in the following settings / situations: Hospital / Nursing Home Sitting (Independent Services including pre-op and post-op care) Pastoral Care (Independent Services) In-Home Caregiving (Independent Services) In-Home Personal Assistance (Independent Services) Memory Care (Nursing Home Experience & Independent Services) Wound Care (Clinic Experience & Independent Services) CNA (Hospital Experience including Skilled Nursing, Rehab, Trauma ICU, Medical, Surgical, Telemetry, and Oncology Units) Here is an excerpt from my resume: --Direct service provider for clients dealing with very complex medical situations --Respected and advocated for client’s rights --Practiced and observed HIPPA compliance; implemented OSHA guidelines for in-home safety care --Developed personalized face-to-face communication with nonverbal client --Entrusted as financial liaison between client and personal funds --Created and/or implemented therapeutic activities and assistive devices --Created charting system for daily healthcare and status updates; provided to as needed --Performed skin care and dressing changes --Maintained inventory of personal care items, medical supplies, and prescriptions If you would like to view my full resume and/or contact my references, please do not hesitate to ask. Hiring a caregiver for yourself or your loved one and allowing that person into your or your loved one's home is a very big deal! I place a high value on open communication, and I welcome questions, concerns, and feedback--not just during the hiring process, but throughout my employ with you and/or your family. I'm excited about the possibility of working with you and/or your loved one. I look forward to hearing from you! Until then, God Bless!
