About Karen
Experience: 1 yr
I am a U. S. Army MP Veteran. A married mother of three successful grown young men. A retired administrative professional. I was born and raised in NJ and moved to IL in 2023. I have recently assisted a couple for several months before their transition to Assisted Living. I am empathetic to the effects of growing older. I have the patience to gladly listen to the same story and keep your schedule and space the way that you prefer. I can do grocery shopping or other errands - always providing the receipt upon completion. Whether I am caring for people or animals, I treat others with respect, dignity and compassion, and would be honored to put these attributes to work helping your family. Some things to note: I can provide gentle reminders on a scheduled timeline to ensure medication is taken. I can assist in washing hair over a sink, or a light sponge bath. I can prepare light meals, do dishes, run a load of laundry, and keep things tidy and sanitary. My availability begins April 6th
