About Marcia

I've been working with seniors since my college days in the early nineties as an intern, volunteer and a business owner. I am compassionate, trustworthy, respectful and dependable. I enjoy work that involves helping people improve their lives. I particularly like working with seniors because they remind me of my grandmother who I was close to. Older people have amazing life experiences to share and they need assistance from someone they can trust. I am proud of my degree in Social Work and my family.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I' am very passionate about my job. I love working for others, providing the necessary care to improve the quality of life for my clients, I' am very patient, I' am a good listener, I communicate affectively, I' am a quick thinker, problem solver, and very caring. I became a caregiver to help others during a very delicate time. It is not always easy to ask for help, or receive help from anyone. This is what drives me to help others. To help them feel comfortable and cared for. I enjoy making others happy. A personal achievement I' am proud is returning to school part time to receive a social work degree.
