I received excellent training as an occupational therapy assistant and am a patient and compassionate caregiver. I enjoy talking with seniors and sharing their life experiences and hopes for the future with them. I am generally a better listener than talker and enjoy shared activities such as reading, doing puzzles or cooking. I also am capable of working with activities of daily living - bathing, dressing and grooming. I have had experience with patients who have had broken hips, heart attacks and strokes. I think that my greatest asset is my ability to be compassionate and accept people where they are.
