About KAREN

The reason why I enjoy being a PCA (caregiver) is because I consider myself to be very compassionate , caring - hard worker. I love caring for people of all ages because it warms my heart. I am a Paraprofessional full time for the Dekalb County School System, working with individuals with disabilities and I LOVE IT. My personal achievement I am very proud of is when I assisted a patient to change her diet and start exercising. A few months later, she noticed a difference in how she felt and her health improved to the point she was able to get off of two of her medications.
