I have always had a compassion to care for others since I was a kid. I would help our elderly go shopping, take grocery in the house, help with therapy, anything they needed help with. Being a caregiver allows me to be myself. I can relate and understand how they fell, laugh with them, talk with them and praise with them. One achievement for me was taking care of elder people, helping them preserve their life and I started working in dietary at a nursing home when I was 16 years old this is my passion, my heart, my love and I would be lost if I was not able to continue helping. I am certified in Kansas and Missouri, working in this field for 20+ years and have a license home health agency in Kansas.
