About Karen

I became a care giver because I began caring for a friend about 10 years ago and I found it very rewarding. I love the interaction between the patient and myself. The companionship is an amazing asset to both of us. I love caring for people and I love making a difference in their lives. I became a certified pharmacy technician and it is a accomplishment that I am very proud of. I love to work hard and show up on time. I changed my line of work about 3 years ago and it is a very welcome change. I love being a care giver.

    I love working with the elderly, I am very patient understanding, and a great listener. I took care of my grandmother for several years and also have a disabled husband. It makes my day when I can do something nice for someone else who needs care, you can count on me.
