About Cheryl

I am a caregiver #1 I love helping people in need of help, I am a very caring person, especially my elderly seniors , I've been a caregiver for many years , I've received an award and small ceremony for being the best caregiver @one of my former employers, (livhome inc.) , I treat the clients the way I would want to be treated with love , dignity and respect . I find it very interesting working with them, always trying to find the best way to keep them comfortable and happy . I feel that they deserve that and I'll always have a listening ear. I completed a L.V.N. program and received a recognition award in geriatrics. I currently work as an caregiver. While studying for my state boards after completion , I suffered a tragedy ,but I'm fine and that's how I became a caregiver , I worked for a few companies , like Sunrise asst. living ,Windsor convalescence ,and a few private , so if you consider my application for employment , It would be greatly appreciated, ..... Thanking you in advance !
