About Shelly

Certified PCA with 8+ years’ work in fast-paced environment handling confidential paperwork, administering medication and providing quality patient care. Qualified in home health care and hospice care settings. Established record of reliability and creating positive rapport with patients, family and staff. Experienced in serving chronically ill patients, including assisting with daily activities and household tasks. I am patient and highly compassionate. I really love helping others and I have dedicated these past 8 years to learning the skills necessary to do a great job. I have worked in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and In-Home-Care. My favorite is In-Home-Care because I get the chance to be more one-on-one with each person. Over the years I have not only created a service for the people that I have worked for, but I have gained life long friends and cherished memories. To me, there is no greater joy than that.

I have been doing caregiving service for more than 10 years and I would say that I have a great experience. I handled all kinds of client's situations from companionship to sick elders. I've been trained to handle hospice patients too. Most of my clients find me a very responsible and easy to get along person and I believe these basic qualities helped me most to be liked by my clients.
