About Michelle

I credit my passion for being a caregiver to my mother. Before her physical problems stopped her, she was an exemplary RN. From the ripe age of 15, I accompanied her to some of her home health patients. I believe this is what planted the seed for my ardor of elderly care. I truly desire being a caregiver for reasons far beyond a paycheck. I've learned in my short sweet life that the intrinsic rewards of helping another are incomparable. The joy of maybe seeing my clients smile or their eyes light up again with life is absolutely incredible. There are no words to describe the magic behind those powerful feelings. In these past 11 years, I've had the opportunity to learn about several levels of care, from light assistance with activities of daily living, to the combative and the terminally ill. I am experienced in Alzheimer's/dementia care and have also cared for quadriplegics and stroke patients among others. Through compassion and dedication, I am able to connect with and enrich the lives of all my clients, physically and otherwise.

    I am CNA, HHA, Med-Tech, and now a Care Manager. I love helping others that are in need! I had a daycare for 18 years. I was looking for something else in helping others that's why I went back to school to become a CNA and HHA. I'm now in Care Management. I manage medication's, doctors appointments, transportation and oversight of senior care. Which includes case management that includes, family members that live out of state, that I oversee their family members to make sure they are receiving the best care. I love spending time with the elderly. I would not trade my job as a Care Manager/caregiver. I have taken care of many seniors, in the last 17 years and love it so much! It makes me feel so good when I go in to help others that are having a hard time taking care of themselves. And family members needing oversight of their family members in need of care. Vaccinated.
