About Edith

I became a Caregiver because I wanted to make a difference in elderly' life. I like being recognized meaning when someone can show appreciation for something well done. As a personal achievement I was helping in a Rest Home and I was doing the laundry I did not like the way they did it. They put all the clothes together without sorting them. I sorted the clothes and I went to the super market bought fabric softener to make the clothes smell good with my money. When I asked the nurse in charge about the way laundry is done here, she told me that they do not use anything else besides detergent. My name is Edith Brice I am a very experienced Caregiver over 15 years. I used to work for American Airlines. I have a B.S in Business Management and Finance I lost my job after the catastrophe of September 11 2001 then I went back to the Health Care Industry. I am very patient, trustworthy and reliable.
