About Darlene

I am a mother of three, grandmother of two. I have 11 years of experience as a Medication Aide/CNA and 15 years experience in Friendswood ISD as a Paraprofessional/Special Education Aide working with special needs students ranging in ages from 3 yrs. - 23 yrs. I am a very compassionate, caring individual and I take my job & responsibilities very seriously. I love working the elderly, I feel we can learn so much from them if we just take the time to listen. I treat them the way I would want someone to treat/take care of my own parents. I also LOVE my special needs friends, they deserve to be treated with dignity & respect like anyone else.

    I have worked with the elderly for a great number years. I have worked in differant nursing facilities as well as odyssey hospice, and home health care. I enjoy my time working as I have learned alot from just talking with differant people. Working with the elderly is a very rewarding job. Its not just about a pay check with me its about the quality of care I provide and the companionship.
