About Kathy

I became a caregiver in 2007 when my father was diagnosed with Parkinson's. My 17 year career as a Family Service Manager at Highland Memorial Park Cemetery and my 5 Year experience as a CNA and certified med tech has given me the pleasure of working with elderly and their families. My care, dedication and compassion has won me employee of the month. I have raised 3 grown, successful children which I am very proud of.my oldest daughter teaches special education, my middle daughter is a nurse and my son is a state trooper.

    I love and enjoy being a Caregiver as I care very much for the elderly. I am committed, reliable, and a hard working person, a non-smoker, clean, organized, positive minded and cheerful. I go all the way and put a lot of effort in order to get my clients in a better health condition. I take pride in my work and I like to see them happy and comfortable. I take care of my patients like they are my own parents; with love, compassion, patience, and respect. I've been getting very positive comments on my work from my client's physicians, family members, and friends. I also have great and recent reference that I can send upon request. Thank you!

    I became a caregiver because I enjoy taking care of others and their overall wellness. I find gratification when I am able to help someone be better each day than the last. I enjoy the feeling of accomplishment when I help others. I have the opportunity each day to make someone's day brighter, I have the ability each day to assist someone who cannot help themselves and I enjoy the fact that I am able to be not only a caregiver but a friend to a person in the time of need, and a support system for their families. I am proud of myself for overcoming obstacles with each day that passes. I am proud of my three children and 6 grandchildren that I have been a caregiver to, and I am proud of all the professional accolades and recommendations I have received from past employers. I am warm and caring, I take care of each person as if they were my own family members. I am invested in each person that I take care of and the care that I give, and I truly enjoy the work that I do.
