About Terry

I became a caregiver to take care of my friend's mother who, was in her nineties while he traveled. When I was completing my externship for medical assisting, the doctor I worked for recognized my true calling with seniors, who always asked for me to attend them. I am pursuing my HHA certificate and am willing to take other courses to enable me to offer the best care possible. My parents are elderly and I understand the aging process first hand, wanting to ease their problems as much as possible. I graduated with high honors and perfect attendance from Medical Assisting College which I'm very proud of. I'm a very hard and good worker that learns quickly and also follows direction. I have received my certificate as a Home Health Aide and plan to complete my CNA certification.

    I am a caregiver for 30 +yrs.i love what i do, though challenging at times i treasure my work.i was the baby of 4 my Mom had a massive stroke and as the baby of the 4 i, along with my husband cared for her at home. She was total care and i had 2 small children at the time as i said it was challenging, i reflect on that time as a privilege because i had a wonderful mother and she cared for me as a child when i couldn't care for my self and now it was my turn to return the love and care she gave me as a child.In addition , my husband and i also care for my father as well as both of his parents. As i said before it was a privilege to care for all our parents that is one of my greatest achievements.
