About Kristin

From a very early age I took care of my mother. She was paralyzed on the right side of her body due to an accident that she had when I was 7 years old. I started taking care of her when I was 15. She passed away at 57. I was 28 years old at that time. I cooked, cleaned, helped with shopping and finances. Helped her with grooming and did her hair on a regular basis. Took her to restaurants and doctors appointments. I enjoy taking care of people and making sure that they know they are important and cared for.

The most rewarding about care giving is when it felt like there is some sort of purpose in my work. There is a great opportunity to really get me to engage and have the routine like I am doing something bigger than myself because at the end of the day that is where I am going, going more towards what am I doing that is impacting others, how am I helping them because at the end of the day that is what I want to do. I want to help people and I want to be there to provide a service and really help those out who are in need.

I have been working as a Certified Caregiver for about five years. I am compassionate, caring, gentle, and dependable. I was an LPN for many years. I worked in hospitals, long term care facilities, and in private homes. I enjoy helping people stay in their own homes, and giving them a feeling of control in their lives, in spite of their health problems. This is so important, as any kind of health problem can cause a feeling of loss of power in one's life. I have been approved to work with United Health Care clients. Sincerely, Diane
