About Teresa A

Supporting the independence and well-being of seniors is my true calling, a passion that has defined my 19 year career as a Certified Healthcare Assistant. I provide comprehensive support, including personal care, mobility assistance, and medication reminders. I am also skilled in hospice services, light housekeeping, and meal preparation. My experience includes navigating memory care challenges, where I focus on de-escalating stressful situations and redirecting attention with patience and empathy. I prioritize understanding your loved one's unique history and preferences to build a meaningful connection. I maintain transparent communication through daily reports or your preferred method. Whether I am assisting with daily living tasks or providing companionship, I bring a calm, friendly approach to every visit. I am on the Illinois Healthcare Worker Registry. I am also fluent in American Sign Language and can speak basic Irish/Gaelic.
