About Dellamaria

I am a great caregiver because I care! I personally feel that because of the type of care my biological grandmother and adoptive mother provided to me from their own angle, is what attracted me to being an individual that is able to help others in ways that they can't...in a healthcare way. I enjoy listening to people. Sometimes companionship is all they need or want. I'm currently proud that I have extended my experience as a caregiver by enhancing my learned skills and turning my worth into something greater by gaining education to pursue a career as a nurse I'm the next 2-3 years.
