About Kimberly

I love working with people in a home care setting, I have a strong desire to want to help. I posses the necessary qualities to help a person who probably wants to be independent but needs varying levels of assistance in their everyday life. I have patience because you have to be able to place yourself in your patients shoes and understand what it may be like to as some one for help. I am reliable, trustworthy and flexible the patient may not be used to having someone come in so its important to stick to the clients schedule but have flexibility to change at the last minute due the clients health condition.

I began care-giving by assisting my grandmother who was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Caring for my grandmother has opened my heart with a compassion to care for others.Since becoming a C.N.A, I have cared for seniors with the following conditions: Alzheimer’s disease, Stroke, Paraplegics, Cancer, feeding tubes, Catheter, Diabetes, Hospice, Parkinson’s and knee replacement. Working with seniors has given me the greatest pleasure and developing my compassionate skills is one of my greatest accomplishment.
