Cynthia’s Bio

Care Management for Seniors / 10 years experience 2012 – On
Trained in Care Management for seniors I am warm and open hearted and take pleasure working with seniors. I ensure the highest client safety and well-being. Patience, empathy, communication, and discretion are essential.
I try to improve the client’s quality of life. One must be able to empathize with emotionally distressed individuals. I have assisted clients with mobility, medication reminders, personal hygiene and transporting to doctor’s appointments. Provided companionship, conversation and cultural outings in a respectful manner. Supervised home maintenance. Provided meal preparation and errands/shopping. Documented and reported any change in client’s health status. Experience with Dementia, Autism, and Assisted living environments. Cared for seniors with varying disabilities. Able to do Bill keeping and personal finance for seniors who request this skill.

I am, also, a professional declutter who has downsized elders home and assisted them in getting into Assisted Living when needed.
