About Joyce

I always have the desire to help people and make them feel better in anyway I can. For four years I worked in the personal care of my own grandmother during her cancer battle with bathing, meal preparations, feeding, linen change, medication administration and companionship. I also was fortunate to work as a licensed child care provider for fourteen years. I was supervised by the Dept of Public Health and my inspections were always positive, My license # was 51824.I closed my Day care business since I have to move to the Town of Manchester in the near future but you can call the public health dept. for verification. I also took a two week Home Health Aide training in 1988 from Nachaugh Valley Visiting Nurses which I never got to practice due to pregnancy and later on I work as a paraprofessional for first and second grade students. I simple love to work and help people. I always give more of what I am expected to. I choose people over paperwork because I know that even in a small way, we can make a positive change by lending a hand.

    My compassion for the infirmed/disabled individuals both young & old has compelled me to seek my CNA in 1987 in RI. Loosing my mother at a young age made me feel 'helpless' to prevent/assist her in her time of need. I give the kind of care that I would want if in their position/situation. This is fulfilling in various ways as I form relationships w/clients. A unique 'accomplishment' was helping w/hospice in CA in transitioning clients towards readiness for dying without feeling alone/lonely. My feelings are genuine & sincere, I am confident, reliable, and respect the rights of others.
