About Amy

I have always been interested in the health care field. I enjoy and I feel self satisfaction when I am helping others. If what I do or say can help someone feel and be more independent, get healthier, enjoy their life, and know that they are important and that they matter in this world, than I have done what I am there to do. I am a "people person", meaning I welcome the opportunity to meet new people of all different backgrounds and ethnicities. I read peoples feelings by just observing their physical reactions to different situations. This gift allows me to great, talk to, and respond to each and every client/patient in a way that is most comfortable and beneficial for them. I have found that my personality comes off as caring, intelligent and having their best interest at heart. This gives the client/patient piece of mind, trust and confidence in my abilities. I am a single mom who has raised my daughter by myself to be a beautiful responsible human being. She is in her 4th year of college at Iowa State University with a double major in Vet Med. and Animal Science. I find her to be my greatest accomplishment and achievement of all. I have instilled all these qualities in her and more. No matter who's path you cross in life, always treat everyone with respect and compassion and success will follow. I am currently aiding in the care of my aunt, who has had alzeimer's for the past 6 years.
