About Joyce

I am very caring and attentive in understanding patient's needs. I'm observant and reliable and very empathetic. In addition, dependable and compassionate towards patient's needs. Being a caregiver gives me a sense of accomplishment in my abilities to connect with individuals that are vulnerable and in need of care. It also allows me to feel a sense of purpose in life that my personal traits can be share with other people. Therefore, seeing a smile on a patient or resident face is the most rewarding feeling. I enjoy making a difference in someones life. One personal achievement I am very proud is that I have continued to grow within myself in my education and nursing skills.

The reason why I am a great caregiver is that I am compassionate for working with different individuals no matter what type of situation the person is seeking in the quality of care. I have patients and I love caring for elderly and pediatrics and I have a positive attitude and empathy for the individual that I am taking cate of. The one thing I love about being a caregiver is making sure each individual is safe within the home or in the facility . I want to make sure that the person has a smile on their face the moment I stepped into the room and or leave. I also want to make sure that no matter what the person is going through each individual can say I made a difference .
