Candace B.

I love to help clients and treat them with dignity and respect. I enjoy their companion and their wise conversation. I feel rewarded when I see this people smiling .

I am a firm believer that yet there is loss of cognition as well as physical abilities in the older population it is important to regain and or maintain self sufficiency as much as possible by learning their needs and approach with unconditional love. I have an unconditional love for the elderly as well as the ill. I have an extensive background in healthcare. I have worked in many different settings whether that is nursing homes, homecare, hospitals. Mainly hospitals. Extensive work history in Med. Surg/Tele/Post Partum/ICU/Burn Unit/Rehab/Ortho/Oncology/Transitional Care Unit/Inmate Ward/Pediatrics/ER units. Ever since I took care of my grandmother when I was 21 yrs. of age, I knew then that this is my calling. I have acquired achievements during my career whether by thank you notes, a prayer book by Joel Osteen. It's the simple rewards that give me satisfaction. While employed at St. Mary's Carondelet I was recognized by the Unit Base Committee on the MSO (medical,surgical,oncology unit) for being the best employee as well as the best rounder. I have the documentation. No greater reward for me than knowing that I took care of the pt. to the best of my ability. It's not about the money.
