Experience: 14 yrs
I have 14 years of experience as a private, in-home caregiver specializing in Alzheimer's and dementia care. I've also worked in assisted living, primarily in memory care, and nursing homes. I earned my CNA certification in 2019. My goal is to help the elderly remain comfortable and independent in their own homes. I understand dementia care requires patience, compassion, flexibility, and the ability to meet each person where they are. My hands-on experience includes personal care, medication management, mobility assistance, bathing, dressing, toileting, meal preparation, companionship, redirection, reassurance, establishing routines, and meaningful activities. I also have experience providing end-of-life care and supporting families through difficult transitions. I take pride in building meaningful relationships with the people I care for and their families. Dementia care is more than a job to me; I truly believe it's my calling.
I am happy to provide an enthusiastic endorsement for Jaimie. Jaime was with us for over two years as a caregiver for my father who has Parkinson's Syndrome and my mom who had Alzheimer's Disease. She stayed with us until Mom passed in July. Jaime is not only compassionate but she is exceedingly skilled. Mother could be difficult, and Jaimie was always a calming presence. She had a way of getting Mom to take her medicines that was amazing. She was constantly present and engaged Mom without over stimulating her or causing her to be agitated. She recognized and reported issues of concern promptly. Once Mom was no longer ambulatory Jamie demonstrated great turning and transferring technique. Jaime has been a blessing and just what we needed from the time she joined us when both of my parents were still going on outings until they both passed. I have every confidence in her skill and know she will exceed all expectations of her future care families.
