About Sandra

When I was a caregiver for Atria I grew fond memories with the residents. I enjoyed having conversations with them, hearing them sing, or even see them dance. Even though work was busy I still managed to sit down and talk with the residents. One great memory I have was working the night shift and as I was doing my rounds I saw a resident in the dining room. The resident was pouring sugar into an empty cup. I sat down next to him and asked him if he would like a cup of coffee, so I made him one. He was very happy and singing songs.
