About Patricia

I am a Great Caregiver because I have a very patient and caring heart and I am very experience in this area of care. I became a caregiver because I saw the need as I would go to the Supermarket, the Doctors office and see these Sweet Elderly struggle to get through a door ,or take a walker or wheel chair from their car or trying to remember where they park their car:) I like been a caregiver because it give me the opportunity to show love ,care and help to our seniors at the time of their life when they need it most One of my personal achievement I am proud of is I remember when the healthcare agency I was working for call me and said Patricia we have a Patient we need to send you to because she has refuse every other caregiver we have send her and you are the only one we believe we can send and she will not refuse. Well I went and the long and short of it I took care of that Patient for 5years until her passing peacefully at Home in my care. I am from the Island of Jamaica where i work as a LPN and as a Travel Missionary to Different Caribbean Countries .I been Living in the U.S.A for 10years .I love to Cook ,I am very Clean ,I am 46 years of age but don't look it at all because I believe in healthy living, I am very experience in caring for the Elderly as I have over 14 years experience. I have a diploma in Home Health Care, Certificate in CPR, Alzheimer and Dementia ,Administration of Medication.It will be my Greatest Joy to Care for You. Thank You

I BECAME A CAREGIVER BECAUSE I ENJOY PROVIDING CARE-GIVING SERVICES TO THOSE THAT CANNOT DO FOR THEMSELVES OR NEED ASSISTANCE. ALSO BECAUSE I HAVE ALWAYS ENJOYED HELPING PEOPLE SO I KNOW I AM DOING THE RIGHT THING. BEING A CAREGIVER GIVES YOU THE OPPORTUNITY TO SEE THE DIFFERENCE YOU CAN MAKE IN PEOPLE LIVES BY HELPING THEM AND MAKING THEM BE ABLE TO TRUST YOU. I CAN PROUDLY SAY THAT I'VE HELPED SEVERAL PEOPLE INCLUDING MY GRANDMOTHER BEFORE SHE PASSED. I SPECIFICALLY BECAME A CAREGIVER SO I CAN BE CERTIFIED AT WHAT I DO BEST.
