Hi I used to babysit my niece til the age of 4 and my neighbors son til she got off from work. Now I am a caregiver I dealt with all types of patients. Patients who had a touch of dementia, three ladies in one house who had to take medication around the clock. A older guy who needed some assistance because his wife couldn't do anymore with cleaning, laundry, wash dishes, errands and even bathe him. My last patient had a lot of disabilities that needed special attention. He was in a wheelchair. He had needed to be bathe, put on his clothes, needed to be suction. He also had to tubes on the side of him. One is for feeding and the other one is for venting so his milk and medicine went through one of his tubes. He was 31 when he died.
