Description
Hello, my name is Rhona K, and I am a dedicated female caregiver specializing in live-in care. With a wealth of experience in supporting individuals with various health conditions such as Mild Cognitive Impairment, Bedbound, Parkinson's Disease, Anxiety, and Depression, I pride myself on providing compassionate and personalized care to those in need. While I may not be able to drive or own a car, my skills in bathing, toileting, assistance with dressing, catheter care, and companionship make me a reliable and trustworthy companion for your loved one.
Beyond my caregiving capabilities, I am passionate about fostering a sense of independence and well-being in those I care for. I find immense joy in helping individuals maintain their dignity and sense of self-worth, ensuring their comfort and safety are always the top priority. In my free time, I indulge in hobbies such as dancing, cooking & baking, solving puzzles, decorating, and gardening, which not only enrich my life but also provide me with a well-rounded approach to caregiving.
As a caregiver, my pet preferences include rabbits, birds, lizards, turtles, and snakes, further showcasing my adaptable and accommodating nature. My attributes of being caring, friendly, and helpful define the essence of my caregiving philosophy. I am driven by the desire to make a positive impact in the lives of those I care for, fostering meaningful connections and creating a nurturing environment where individuals can thrive and lead fulfilling lives.
