Angelika H
PROFESSIONAL CAREGIVER
As a caregiver, Angie has dedicated her career to providing top-quality home care to elderly individuals in need of support and companionship. She has been working with PHC in this capacity since 2017 and has a passion for helping others that is evident in all that she does.
Originally from Germany, Angie moved to the United States in the early 2000s. In her home country, she worked as a nurse, but after arriving in the US, she decided to pursue a career in caregiving and obtained her CNA certification. This decision has allowed her to work closely with older adults in their own homes, providing them with the personalized care and attention they need to thrive.
Angie has had several long-term clients as a live-in caregiver, caring for those with Alzheimer's, dementia, Parkinson's, and those in hospice care. She is skilled at finding ways to engage her clients and keep their minds active through games and activities, and her caring and compassionate nature make her a valuable asset to any home care team. In her current role, Angie has been with her client for over two years, but she also has availability to fill in on days when she is not committed to other clients.
In addition to her work as a caregiver, Angie enjoys spending quality time with her family in her spare time. She is a dedicated and hardworking individual who truly cares about the well-being of those in her care. If you or a loved one is in need of a caregiver, Angie is the perfect choice. Her skills and experience make her well-equipped to provide the highest level of home care and support to those in need.
