Experience: 4 yrs
I am currently a senior at the University of Iowa studying Neuroscience and Spanish. I work in the geriatric psychiatry inpatient unit at UIHC and have for over 3 years. I have experience working with patients with all types of cognitive and memory disorders including autism, intellectual disabilities, dementia, Alzheimer's and more! I have my CNA and am CPR trained.
Lydia has been a light in my grandmothers life!! She is so respectful, patient, and loving. Goes above and beyond the call of duty. She took my grandmother to her house with her family to bake cookies, brought her family over to sing Christmas carols over the holidays, took my grandmother for the 4th of July last year with her family. She has become an extended family member! Do not hesitate for one second to hire her. I wish I could get more hours from her! :)
