About Celeste

Experience: 7 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

Please Note: Available for full-time or one-time-only "Live-In" positions :-) I have a total of 22 years (paid/unpaid) hands-on experience caring for the elderly with COPD, early-onset dementia to late-stage Alzheimer's, kidney issues (leading to dialysis), type 1/2 diabetes (requiring insulin), stroke/heart issues with side effects, neuropathy, hypertension, parkinsons, arthritis, scoliosis, TIA's and sleep apnea. Very well-versed in medication management, & Hoyer Lifts. I previously worked for 26 years as an IT Professional (in the cleared world). Transitioned to healthcare in September 2017. My objective as a caregiver is to help my client(s) remain in their homes during their senior years, in a safe, enriching, and very clean, "COVID-free" environment. I aim to be that extra set of hands, eyes, and ears - needed to assist with their activities of daily living, seamlessly and satisfactorily. My work ethic gives new meaning to the phrase, "Going above and beyond the call of duty."

Celeste lived with my parents full time, for 3 years. She cared for my Mom during every stage of her Alzheimer's Disease. Celeste is precious to our family. She took better care of my Mom than I ever could have imagined. Celeste went above and beyond her caregiver responsibilites. She was on top of everything and even knew more than the doctors and nurses when they would make their home visits to check on her. There is no way my family would have made it through these last few years without her. Celeste loved my mother without limits. She encouraged her independence when she was still able to do somethings on her own and when Mom became bed ridden, the caregiving became harder but Celeste rose to the challenge, selflessly giving Mom everything she possibly could. Celeste thought ahead, she likes a routine and knows the importance of a schedule and pre-planning. She is a hard worker, very clean and orderly, keeps her house spotless and is selfless when it comes to caring for others.
