I started out being a caregiver for my grandmother who suffered from Alzheimer's and she opened my eyes to what it means to love, to truly care, and to appreciate everyday. Since her passing it has become a passion of mine, companion care, and even though I've only had 2 clients they were both long term and I love them, cared for them, and miss them just as much as I did and do my grandmother. Since being their caregiver I have started nursing school going 2 days a week. I am also part of the National Student Nurses Association and take pride in keeping my knowledge up to date. What is it that makes me stand out from others is my true love and compassion. I am big on family so your loved one with never be treated as if they are a client but as if they are my own.
