About Sheryl

I am HHA certified. When I take on a family I want to really KNOW the folks in my care. It makes for meeting their needs better, and provides an atmosphere of trust and well being. I have visited " Seniors" ever since I was a little girl, with my mother; such fascinating stories! I have worked in the medical fields and in an elder care business for over 10 years. I know how vital it is for all humans to be validated by love and attention. One of my accomplishments was to be present, and give assurance to a client that did want to "go". She died peacefully, listening to her favorite music , while I held her hand! I consider that a great honor. I am a college graduate. Graduated with honors at St. Petersburg College in Allied Health , ( Radiology ). In my youth , I was a laboratory technician. Treating and helping folks and trying to make them smile, has apparently what I have done all my life . I still consider it an honor.

HHA for elderly blind lady

Feb 1015 - Aug 2015
Roby O, Brien
My charge was a precious woman. She was in declining health. She was 92. She was mostly bedridden , but when she felt up to it we would go outside in her wheelchair. We had so much fun together!!! Although she was legally blind, we had fun doing "girl things". She wanted me to put her make up on daily. She had me redo her hair into a pretty hair bun.She wanted her special jewelry on, and listen to music and documentaries . She needed me to get her to the bathroom, and then eventually to change her depends. Sponge baths and body rubs...she loved them. I was privileged to be with her when she passed.

My health care career started caring for my father who struggled with the debilitating effects of Parkinson's disease. Six years later, I decided health care was something I was good at, enjoyed, and found rewarding. I went to school and obtained my CNA license. I worked several years at Independent Living, Assisted Living, and Skilled Nursing Facilities. I have worked with several CareLinx families providing compassionate support and reliable care.
