About Deirdre

Experience: 10 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I am a experienced home care provider with 25 + years. I specialize in dementia, hospice, ALS, stroke, strengthening, Parkinson's, cancer, and spinal cord injuries. I have experience in all aspects of home care. I train families for easy transitioning with loved ones. I can make a stressful and difficult situation easier on both loved ones and family. I'm very experienced in house management, this takes the stress off of family members. I have hospital and nursing home experience. I am reliable, honest and have impeccable references. I am certified in CT and RI. I prefer overnight shift's, but will do any shift. I will do 24 hr consecutive days as a partial live in, or live in caregivers days off. I am patient, and caring. Bubbly, and funny. I assess and learn about who I am caring for, and what is the best way to make them comfortable. People are different as well as their needs. I hold training certificates for unique care. you may inquire.

Deirdrea has been exceptionally helpful with caring for my elderly mother who was suffering from dementia. Deirdrea was compassionate and extremely engaged with mothers care, always on time to relieve an earlier shift and greatly appreciated by the entire family. Deirdrea was a joy to have in the home. I would highly recommend Deirdrea as a caregiver. She is absolutely a 5 star rating.
