About Brenda

At a very young age I have always been interested in spending time with elderly people. I love to help and make people smile. I completed my nursing studies in 2002; I have a over 20 years of experience in Home Health care and Nursing Assistance. It was at that point I realized that caring for people, especially the elderly, was my calling. To me, I think it's being able to put yourself in the older person's shoes and understand that they were also my age once and had the whole world at their feet. I think you need the gift of the gab to resonate with people and make them feel comfortable with you and get to know you better. Home care is a personal experience and it can be incredibly fruitful if the relationship is more caring and personal. Not only do I have great experience, I am also reliable and very compassionate about the work that I do. What I love most about my career is being able to meet different people. Every day can bring on a new challenge and you are constantly learning. Helping others to reach their total wellness is my expertise and I plan on sharing my knowledge and skills with this company,
