About Karen

Experience: 10 yrs

I became a nurse in 2004, and enjoyed 10 years in a hospital setting, until an allergy made it impossible to continue. I worked on a SubAcute Unit for 5 years, and am skilled in wound care. I also worked inpatient psych for 2 years. Experienced with ventilators as well. For the past few years I have enjoyed doing private duty, and have some availability. I have a home schooled 10-year-old son, an absolute delight. When appropriate, I bring him along, as he is helpful and polite, and wonderful company. I am available to shop and cook, including special diets, and with the utmost cleanliness. I am looking to make someone's life experience better for a few days a week. I will dedicate myself to providing your loved one with a lovely and engaging day, while able to pay attention to any medical needs. I also have an immaculate driving record.
