Diamond’s Bio
Hello! I'm Diamond, and I'd like to provide care for people with brain/spinal injuries, developmental disabilities, and mental illnesses. I believe in a compassionate, person-first approach.
I have many skills, as I have worked previously at in-home, group home, and hospital settings. I have skills in: de-escalation, trauma-informed crisis intervention, g-tube, medication administration, CPR, charting, taking vitals, colostomy management, ADL's including toileting and bathing, person-centered planning, nutrition, and many other skills.
I am fluent in American sign language. I have worked in the past as: a security officer at a hospital, a nanny for a nonverbal child with severe autism, a rehabilitation aide for three clients with brain/spinal injuries, a direct support professional for 6 adult residents with developmental disabilities, and a caregiver for a person with terminal cancer.
If you or someone you love needs not only a caregiver- but a friend, advocate, and someone with great patience, respect, integrity, and work ethic, please consider contacting me.
