2020-2023: Promedica24
Chester. The lady was bedridden and had to be fed through a feeding tube. Every day, I assisted with her personal hygiene and changed her incontinence pads. I moved her from the bed to the sofa using hoists. She had a colostomy bag, which I cleaned every other day. We often went for car rides and sometimes to medical appointments. I also cooked for her husband and ensured the house was always clean. I would watch soap operas with her, and at other times she asked me to read to her.
