I was born to help. I have, for the most part, had jobs that included helping others. I enjoy the medical field very much. I was partially raised by my grandmother. She was so precious to me. In my adult life I was able to care for her after her surgery at age 76. I have had Paramedic and nursing training which made it easy for me. I go to my mother's church now and most of the members are 70 to 96 years old. It is my pleasure to help them when I can. They see me as a young person. Lol I became a caregiver for two of the members when they both became ill. They became part of my extended family. Whatever I could do, I did. I like to cook, and bake. I do light house work, even helped in the yard, so we could be outside. Making their life enjoyable was my goal, as will be for your loved one. I worked very closely with Home Health and Hospice and can get references if wanted.
