Sadly lost a long time dementia patient during the holidays and am now looking for a new patient to take care of. I received nursing and medical assistant training as a Navy Corpsman in the U. S Navy. Since then I spent years working as a medical assistant in a doctor's office. Also at the same time started part time as a senior caregiver working with seniors through Home Health Aide and with several veterans through the V. A's Veteran's Direct program. I can't help but become friends with my patients and their families, we always find a way to somehow have a good laugh even in the roughest times. I have been CPR Certified and EMT Certified.
