I had the privilege to work along side Gloria for over 10 years in the position of her supervisor at our joint employment at CarePartners. Gloria was a remarkable Personal Support Worker that provided the utmost quality of care and support to each of her patients that she assisted. Gloria always approached work with a positive attitude and was one that would problem solve on her own and would work very well independently.
Gloria was recommended by myself for the Heroes in the Home award that was offered by the Southwest LHIN to be recognized for the work that she completed. Gloria treated each person as though it was her loved one and gave 100%. Gloria also took many extra courses and opportunities of learning that were provided to the staff during her time with us as well as she extended her knowledge with learning opportunities from other sources in the community.
Gloria was a staff that we always got compliments for in her work ethic and was dearly missed by patients and their families when service was completed. Gloria was very professional and flexible in her work and would offer valuable input and suggestions to patients, for such things as equipment or alternate ways to complete tasks, as it was required. There was never a worry about the care being provided if Gloria was the staff in place, she pays attention to the very small details that usually go missed unfortunately.
I would highly recommend Gloria as a Personal Support Worker and you can rest assured that you or your loved one will be getting the best quality of care that is possible. Should you have any further question or feedback please feel free to call me anytime.
I met Gloria when my Mom and I moved to Woodstock. She was in a wheelchair and was in need of a caregiver while I worked. We met Gloria 2006 her knowledge of every day needs and assistance in the unexpected were extremely helpful. How to describe Gloria... caring heart, never negative, full of life, her smile is infectious which makes her clients feel good about themselves, trust was never a question, she goes above and beyond for her clients and their families, the professionalism is not ever in question. Mom passed in 2012. Gloria and I remained friends. In 2017 I had major surgery on my knee and femur at which time I was in need of help and care to come back from major surgery. I am getting there with this woman's help and many attributes.
I am a client of Gloria. She is very kind and soft handed. She looks right into my face/eyes when speaking to me. She shows respect such a closing the bathroom door when I am in the bathroom with her. She comes to say hello as soon she arrives to let me know she is here. I just love her. I feel safe and well taken care of when she is here.
it is a privilege to write this review for Gloria Henricks. PSW
During my acute illness, Gloria was instrumental in training and directing me in my activities of daily living. Because of her quick lead in attending and assisting me with managing to independently care for myself in eating, personal hygiene - bathing/showering, grooming, oral care, etc. my health and mobility steady improved.
I shall always be grateful to Gloria for her professional care.
Gloria provided excellent and compassionate service. She was always very caring and kind and made my mom very comfortable and never rushed through her care routine. Gloria went above her duties and provided personal attention to the details that my mom appreciated and made her feel better; like using mom’s favourite creams for a massage and doing a little makeup and hair to make my mom feel good about herself. Her attention to detail was excellent. Gloria made sure she was wearing clothes or pajamas that were comfortable but also that mom liked. She wrote notes to us about care she needed while she was not on duty. Mom always looked forward to her visits and asked the care service provider to send Gloria as often as possible. Their response was to "try, but everyone wants Gloria”. Gloria said she would keep in touch as did some other caregivers when mom went to palliative care at Sakura House, but she was the only one who actually did and attended mom’s funeral. I would 100% recommend Gloria to others!
I had a pleasure of engaging Gloria for just a short time to look after my mother. We found her to be competent and knowledgeable. Gloria clearly knows " her stuff" and demonstrates it with patient and loving care.
Gloria’s primary function was to care for my fathers needs. Before his passing in August my father was 90 years old, limited mobility, and a mild case of dementia. This included getting him showered, shaved, and dressed for the day. She would prepare his breakfast, and have his lunch ready wrapped and in the fridge. Always ensuring his medication was properly dispensed. She was also responsible for his physio, and taking him outside for some fresh air. Gloria was able to fit all this in in the 3 hour window.
Originally Gloria was scheduled for Monday,Wednesday, and Friday. This would be from 9:00 am-12:00 noon. As my fathers needs increased the hours were increased to Monday-Saturday from 9:00 am-12:00 noon. Gloria then began to come in the evening for one hour to put my Father to bed at approximately 7:30 pm. This took considerable pressure off of my mother who is 84.
Gloria is a true proud professional in every aspect of her job. Gloria is able to handle difficult situations, and can also deal with changing family dynamics. Her input into care and dietary needs is valuable for improved care. She has very good time management skills that are an asset for this type of care.
I would not hesitate to recomend Gloria for any of you health care requirements
