About Joan

I became a caregiver because I love to care for people. I love to put a smile on peoples faces. I remember the time I was working at a nursing home and the resident was going through a divorce and I was just there to listen and give hugs and to let her know how much I loved her. That really made a difference to her, and I was so happy to be able to bring her smile back. She made my day.
