Description
My name is Rachel G, and I am a compassionate female home carer with over 30 years of experience providing care for individuals in their homes. I specialize in hourly and overnight care, assisting with bathing, toileting, dressing, catheter care, and companionship, among other things. My greatest motivation for caring is to help people live independent lives, and I am always eager to provide comfort and support to individuals who need it.
I am a caring, friendly, and helpful individual at all times, and I have a deep passion for making a positive difference in the lives of those that I care for. I am skilled in providing assistance to individuals with Mild Cognitive Impairment, bedbound care, Parkinson's disease, anxiety, depression, among other ailments. In addition, I have experience caring for pets such as cats, dogs, fish, rabbits, and birds.
When I am not working, I enjoy going for walks, dancing, cooking, baking, solving puzzles, and doing embroidery. I enjoy engaging in activities that stimulate my mind and body as it helps me to be more productive and efficient in my job.
If you are looking for a home carer who is caring, compassionate, and skilled, please get in touch with me today, and I will be happy to provide a helping hand to you or your loved ones. I can drive and have my own car, and I am more than willing to work around my clients' schedules to provide the best possible care.
