About Nicole

What makes me a good caregiver is i like to sit down and listen to the individual and the family to find out their concerns and fears and how they want things to be. I respect all rights and will not over step my boundary. I'm a good listener and companion. I became a care giver after taking care of my grandma while she battled with cancer. It was a hard and emotional time but after she passed. I learned that we became closer and during that hard time we also had many good times. So in the end results i became a care giver to become a companion and to help others when help is needed.

through my caregiving experience, i have learned that the people i care for teach me more about myself then i could ever learn anywhere else. i strive to have the people i care for live there life to the fullest, despite there physical or mental limitations. i have worked with a quadreplegic with muscular dystrophy, who was also a "stand up" comedian. Along with seeing a man paralyzed by cerebral palsy, live the joys of his life through poetry ever week. through my life of caregiving, i have learned the only limitations in life are the ones we make for ourselves. we can do anything we set our minds too.
