About Victoria

The reason I became a private caregiver is the more I worked. I could see the joy and their pain disappearing. The client wanted to just be treated with respect and understanding. I have had the pleasure of working with Doctors and medical staff from Emory Johns Creek Hospital and local Primary Doctors. I have 20 years of experience in private home settings. I love taking care of people. It has always been a gift to help others in any medical care needed. Family included: Aunt, Grandmother, Parents

House cleaning, gave medication, wore depends at night. Used wheelchair when I started. Within 2 weeks had client using a walker. I would get her outside, for drives, we ate out. We had a wonderful relationship. Worked some 24 shifts. I had to make a decision to call the son Tim due to care after my shift. It was decided for client to be moved to Alabama. I helped drive with client and son. And stayed 8 days in Alabama getting client settled in.

I enjoy their appreciation for being their caregiver and they seem so grateful. I treat them the same way I would like to be treated and the way I would like my family members to be treated if needed care. As one of the noblest professions, a caregiver has much to offer in terms of compassion and care.
