I've always loved helping elderly people. Part of what makes me a great caregiver is that people I care for tell me I understand them even when no one else seems to. I ask lots of questions to determine what they want and need. Therefore, they have the maximum autonomy, independence and happiness possible, which is definitely what I would want for myself. I also have the gift of extreme patience when working with elderly people with dementia. They never drive me crazy, most likely because of lots of exposure early in life to that sort of thing. Of course, I'm completely trustworthy. But I also have unusually high integrity, excellent values and am unusually responsible and capable. I have extensive college training in medical information and know what to do. I've been trained by some of the best private caregivers in Louisville and have a network of other excellent caregivers. I have a very wide range of experience in this area up to and including working closely with hospice staff. I'm a multi-talented individual who's an unusually accomplished American. Therefore, I have all kinds of personal achievements I'm proud of. I simply enjoy this type of service and autonomy more than most types of professional work I've done.

I love to help people I have a bachelor's degree in psychology, that's why I went into that subject because I am intrigued by people and I love to help them. I have a very sweet and polite persona. I am willing to do whatever makes them smile and happy! I love to hear stories from them if they like to tell them, I'm kinda of an old soul. I know I am a good caregiver because I treat people that others love the way I would want someone to treat someone that love or myself if I ever needed this type of care. I am always polite and respectful. I was mostly brought up by my grandparents whom I loved dearly and they laid down a good foundation to how you treat others in life and how you treat others says alot about your morals and character. I don't mind doing for others at all. But it would be nice to have a friend as well but I do respect peoples boundaries, I know we all have our days! I would love to have a chance to meet you!
