On Monday, Shirley helped me pick my sick husband up off of the shower floor (after a fall that occurred prior to her arrival). I feel very blessed to have her help!

I'm a happy person. I learned how be a caregiver when my mom had a stroke and I was laid off my job Express Scripts for 27 years as a Registered Pharmacy Technician. I started working in a adult living facility 7 yrs and I've been doing it every since. I love it. Sometimes it can be a challenge. I've taking care of all ages oldest client was 91yrs . They had Alzheimer's and dementia. I give bath, clean house, prepare food, wash clothes , walking exercises, companionship, medication reminder, what ever the client needs required I'm flexible. I live in Tampa. I graduated from High School and a college degree. I have 2 sons and happily married for 32 years. So I can say I'm truly blessed.

I originally started my healthcare career as a First Responder (EMT- Intermediate Grade) with American Heart Association CPR and American Red Cross Advanced First Aid Instructor certificates (though all said certifications are lapsed at this time) before moving on to other career choices. Four years ago, an opportunity for home healthcare assistance became available. I enjoyed that experience and continue to work with patients requiring some additional activities of daily living assistance.
