About Linda

What makes me a great caregiver is I have a God given gift of compassion and the ability to solve problems. I also have a cheery personality and love to laugh and in this business it's important! Also I know how to get whatever needed... done! I started out 16 years ago taking care of my husband who had renal failure requiring a kidney transplant. When that failed he had to back on dialysis which slowly tore his body down a little at a time and could no longer even walk, shower or brush his teeth. I did everything for him and wouldn't have had it any other way! For the last 2 years I've been taking care of a lady with heart disease. I do her laundry, shop, cook, serve, clean, manage her meds and accompany her to Dr. visits.

I have always wanted to help people with special needs; perhaps because I had a sibling who was born with severe disabilities, so I know first hand the difficulties and challenges faced by these individuals and their families. There was very little help available when I was a child, so we relied mainly on our family for the help and support we needed. Back then, there were no respite services or in-home caregiver services. You took your chances on finding a trustworthy stranger (if you could afford one). Now, it is very gratifying to me to be able to help other people who are dealing with illness or disability in any way I can. I like to make jewelry and craft items, and I like to share those hobbies with my clients, if they're interested. Many of them seem to enjoy these activities and find them gratifying. I also love to read, and some clients enjoy being read to, which I also enjoy. I've been told I'm a good listener and a pretty good companion, as I can adapt to whatever my client is capable of and willing to do. I am experienced, caring, and am a retired social worker.

I'm a true caregiver at heart. Whether taking care of my own loved ones to caring for others. I love making a big impact on their lives. Nursing has always been something that interested me. I became a CNA at age 18 and worked in a nursing home for 2 years. I have over 10 years of experience in working with the elderly in various settings. I'm most proud of the acknowledgement from patient families who have seen first hand the care I've given their loved ones.
