About Dawna

I am a mother of 3, currently working as a caregiver to my mother in law who is suffering from Alzheimer's. My late grandmother owned and operated a 6 bed assisted living in her home. I spent a lot of time there helping her. The time I spent with her taught me so much and I loved hearing about the seniors stories and what they had experienced in their lives. Especially loved going with them to play bingo.

I go above and beyond to make him/her happy and feel loved. I became a caregiver, because when I was a little girl, I always helped out my grandparents, until the day they both left this earth. I was under the age of 18 when they passed away. So thats when I decided I wanted to be a caregiver. What do I like about being a caregiver, it gives me joy to make them happy and feel loved. Its vary important that i make them happy an enjoy these last days on this earth. I might not be able to take care of all the elderly, but the one's i do take care of its with love. Thats all that matters... I'm most proud of completing schooling in business management,

After caring for my terminally ill father in my home years ago, I began helping my friends in similar situations with their loved ones. Finding this work very rewarding and having to join the work force it seemed a natural avenue for me. In the past 10+ years I've met so many incredible people and made lasting friendships with both clients and their families. When you truly love what you do, it becomes more than just a "job". Having family in the medical field, I've also worked hospice cases and with Alzheimer's patients. Excellent references upon request.
