I come from a long line of caregivers, taking care of others is what I do best. I am not new to this field I have done training for a very long time.I have empathy for others, an can always put myself in someone else's shoes, so I never pre judge others or fail to show how much I care. I love people, is why I started in this field I have learned so much from my patients.I try to make their day a little more enjoyable....

Hi! My name is Yang Shi and I am from mainland China, I have lived here for 29 years. I had a restaurant business for more than 20 years in Arkansas. Our restaurant got "Top 100 Chinese's Restsurant" award in 2009. I sold the business and property in 2015 and moved to Seattle to be closer to my daughter while she goes to college at the University of Washington. I returned to China last year to take care my parents for several months before I started to work at the Fred Meyer. I accompanied my parents reading, writing, and talking, reminding them to take medicine, and prepared them meals. That was a very sweet and unforgettable time. After moving to Seattle I worked at the Norse Home in Greenwood serving the elderly community. I also spent time working as a caregiver for an older woman with dementia for several months; I prepared her meals and assisted her to the bathroom and shower and helped her keep her exercise and medicine schedule and maintained the housework. I know how to take care of older people , according to my working and living experience . I love people , love animals, love trees, plants and nature. I understand how important honesty and love is in my life. I am very confident I will do a good job at being a caregiver.
