Newly retired Registered Nurse with extensive experience in geriatrics, home care, hospice, HIV, and oncology, seeking a room in exchange for part-time nursing. I am ethical, honest, and compassionate. No smoking/drinking/drugs. The quality of care I offer is rooted in a lifelong Buddhist meditation practice of kindness and calming presence. I need a clean, quiet, and safe place that is near public transportation, with my own room plus access to kitchen & bathroom. My baseline requirements to work with a client are: Mutual respect, healthy boundaries and good communication, and expectations that are clearly delineated. The number of hours per week/month and how hours are scheduled/divided is negotiable depending on the care needs and the specifics of the space available. Time frame flexible. Interests include art, nature, culture, books, music, theater, politics, conversation. Excellent references and resume available upon request. If interested in discussing, please reach out. Thanks!
