About Shameka

1. I love to help people in any way I can. 2. I like the fact that people depend on and trust in me to do the right thing by them. 3. I have achieved to become a Licensed Practical Nurse and I am proud that I have made this achievement happen and didn't give up. 4. I am fun, loving, and intelligent. During my free time I like to read, go to the park with my daughter, and go to the movies.

    I am a very compassionate, caring and giving person. I'm bright and cheerful and would like nothing more than to make you happy and put a smile on your face while I'm caring for you. You are of great importance. Your needs being fulfilled and your health being cared for are my priorities. As your personal caregiver, I can give you the undivided care you need. While caring for an elderly man I most recently cared for, I accompanied him inside his doctor appointments, to better understand his conditions, needs and followups. And I would do the same for you. You are a unique person and have special needs.
