About Catherine

1) I love being a positive, productive part of someone's life. I cared for many people before joining any caregiving company, so I guess it's inbread in me to help people. 2) I love the fulfillment of being a caregiver. I check the person's place to make sure I completed all my tasks then if they have to do anything for themselves when I'm gone, I make sure to make their tasks as simple for them as possible. 3) I have been assigned to a few very difficult clients with whom I have dealt very well. 4). I am a very patient person with many years of personal and professional experience. Anyone that I took/take care of says almost the same thing to me, "you are so nice to me. My own family isn't as patient as you."

    I love being a caregiver first of all because I like helping others, it gives me a sense of satisfaction and achievement. I take initiative, I am responsible, compassionate and a quick learner. I am very enthusiastic when I am doing my work because it is what I love doing, and what I do best. I am known to provide quality care. I would have loved to take care of my mother when she was sick but unfortunately, I could not leave my job and I did not see her when she passed away. I believe that is one of the reasons why I am so compassionate and patient with the elderly because I see them as my mother. I also took care of my mother in law before she passed away. I have very good recommendations that I can provide from all the patients' families I have been blessed to take care of.
