Hi my name is Carolyn, I have been working as a caregiver for about 7 year. I have been working for myself and have had great success at doing so. I have worked for people who have Alzheimer. Loved them all and had a long term job with them until their families decided it was time to seek home care in facilities for them. I have worked with people who have parkinsn"s disease, and many more who just need help with meals preparation and shopping and doctor appointments. I have lots of good references from all these people and there families. I enjoy my work. I am a practicing Buddhist who's purpose in life is to spread happiness to all being.
