My legal name is Harold but I have always gone by Doug. I am a caring compassionate retired man with 25 years experience working with the elderly as an Occupational Therapy Assistant. I am also CPR certified. While engaging in a variety of volunteer activities including being a lay chaplain at church, participating in a group activity for those with dementia at church, delivering meals to the home bound, and making hospice visits I want to continue working part time with other male seniors that would benefit from my training and expertise. I have also had a number of positive client interactions while working with Care. com. Those positive interactions are noted in the reviews I have received. I look forward to continuing those positive working relationships in the future. Please reach out to me anytime you are in need.
After my mom died, we were able to get Doug to provide care for my (88-89 year old) dad for the last part of my father's life. Doug provided excellent care for my father five days a week, spent more time with him than anyone else, and became my dad's best friend. For Doug, it's not just a job; it's his mission, his ministry, and his purpose. His genuine concern for people is matched by his professional expertise and experience. My family is forever grateful that Doug made my dad's life better physically, mentally, and emotionally. Doug truly went above and beyond the requirements whenever he thought it was needed or would be helpful.
