About Patrice

I became a caregiver when a family member had a stroke and nobody else was there to help to take care of her. I like being a caregiver because you must be passionate about taking care of others. Knowing that you can be of help to someone who desperately needs it is very rewarding. One of my personal goals was to transition my aunt from a skilled nursing facility to living independently again in her own apartment. I'm self-motivated, confident, helpful, hardworking, and a team player. I love being of service to those in need.
