About Paola

Experience: 5 yrs

I am originally from Colombia and I have a background in healthcare. I worked for five years in a hospital emergency department in Colombia, where I gained valuable experience caring for patients with different medical needs and learned the importance of being attentive, compassionate, responsible, and calm in challenging situations. I am passionate about helping older adults feel safe, comfortable, respected, and cared for in their own homes. I can assist with daily routines, light housekeeping, companionship, mobility support, medication reminders, and other non-medical activities according to the family's needs. I am certified in CPR and have training in emergency response. I am a caring, patient, reliable, and responsible person. I understand that every older adult has different preferences, routines, and needs, and I always try to provide personalized care while respecting their independence and dignity.
