Yrs Experience

I have been working as a private caregiver for elders and their families at home in Comox Valley more than 5 years. (More details; heiwacare.com) My passion is to support elderly people and families to stay in their own homes as long as they can or to the end of their lives if those are their wishes. My service is personalized care and I can also function as a bridge between VIHA and clients and their families. (I can fill up the gap between VIHA's public services and clients' needs.)

I worked as a RN at major hospitals for more than 7 years. I have been working as a private caregiver for elders and their families at home in Comox Valley more than 5 years. (More details; heiwacare.com) I am interested in End of Life Care, so I took a Palliative Approach Course at BCIT during Covid-19. Additional Experiences/Qualifications: I am interested in supporting elderly people who want to stay at home as long as they can and also who want to end their life at their home.

The moment Sachiko walked in to our livingroom, I knew she would be an amazing addition to my dad's life. Despite his cognitive decline, she spoke with him and not at him. He was included in the plans for his care. At a time when he disliked any change to his routine, he felt comfortable with Sachiko. They sat in the backyard and had coffee and snacks, went for walks around the neighborhood while she listened to his memories, watched TV, did jigsaw puzzles, read books, sat quietly and listened to music. The days activities were based on his mood and energy level. She wasn't just "hired help" - Sachiko became his friend and mine. I can not recommend her strongly enough. Sachiko cares about her clients.

I have had a chance to hire Ms. Sachiko G to take care of my old friend living in Comox who suffered a mental breakdown that led to Parkinson's disease induced dementia. Through my experience with her I have no hesitation at all to recommend Sachiko to anyone who is in urgent need of an experienced, professional care giver to look after ailing seniors and loved ones. Sachiko is not only very experienced and passionate but is also very client friendly. What makes her stand out is that she always thinks and cares from the clients' point of views and does so by befriending with clients. Looking at her working and caring my friend I really felt that she doesn't take her work as a job but, rather, takes it as a mission. Passionate, honest and very serious. Her root is in Japan and may be the world renowned Japanese hospitality is what she is. Ken S Burnaby, BC
