About Shannon

1. I became a caregiver at age 16. I took care of a disabled man that had a stroke and had no one to help him. I worked for a co. called Redwoods United in Mckinleyville, CA. Each day before and after school I took care of him until he required a nurse. I had found my calling at that point in my life. 2. I enjoy learning from others experiences by being a good listener. This gives me the ability to adapt myself to each clients needs and wants. 3. I am proud to have taken care of two clients over 7 years and seeing them through the last halves of their lives. 4. My life's work is caring for others. If I won the lotto I would still be helping others.

    I became a caregiver to help elderly who can't help themselves but deserve loving compassionate care. I like helping seniors feel complete and comfortable in their situation. That I've been doing home health care for seniors for 20 years. I'm a loving compassionate kind understanding and gentle caregiver who likes nothing more than to be able to help seniors in their homes accomplish their daily tasks of living.
