About Teresita

I have to care for my 84 year old mom with Alzheimer. But before that I worked in a mortgage company at the same time taking care my mom and later own decided to be with her full time because of her condition. I have passion of being a caregiver because I realize I always think of other people first more than myself.When I was young I always think about the life of those seniors and always asking myself that when I am on their own shoes what and who will take care of me? Will they're be nice or treat me gently and will they understand me? I am very caring, I went to culinary school and went to school to learn more about dispersing medicines and medical terms. I have been a long time caregivers and the only thing that separates me and my patient when they passed away. I make them happy and smile all the time and encourage them to think positive. I do help them with their personal needs like bathing, preparing their meal and their meds. I read them newspapers in the morning and also help with their light housekeeping. I feel so sorry leaving my patient recently because I moved here in Florida to take care my sick cousin. I am the kind of person that you can depend on, trust and respect the seniors.
