Accomplishments

My caregiver skills came from caring for my Dad that had Vascular Dementia. He moved in with me at the beginning of his dementia and I cared for him until his passing almost a year later. Caring for Dad included making and transporting to appts. Cookoing, cleaning, bathing, incontinence, sundowning, walking, visiting family, taking trips out of state (via airplanes) to visit brother in hospice, going to sports events, etc. Working along side VNAs, Rehab professionals and CNAs here at home.

Transport Driver for animal rescues

After we received our dog Ruby through a rescue 10+ years ago I decided that is what I would like to do as a volunteer. I have been driving for Rescue Road Warriors rescue out of Missouri for about 10 years now. I also volunteer for Paws Watch which is a TNR (trap, neuter and release) for feral cats in RI. I would also foster the feral kittens and socialize them so they can get adopted into a good home while they were still young enough to be worked with.
