About Brenda

i have been a certified nursing assistant for 11 years but i have been a caregiver longer than that helping to assist my own family members with adl's, med,and whatever else that i could assist with. i am a very caring, and patient individual i always have empathy and compassion for the individuals that i enter into their lives. i never treat people as a client i treat them as though they were a family member, and it is very rewarding to make someone happy. I understand that sometimes family members can't be there all the time so it is my pleasure to help and fill in when family members cant. I have worked in all different areas so i have a lot of experience that alot of caregivers don't and i always tell people i'm not here for the money i am here knowing that i can make someone happy or even smile if it is only for a minute. I do have a full time job but I don't mind sharing my time assisting others when i can.

    I became a caregiver by nature. My mother died when I was 10 and I became the caregiver of my 7 siblings. Also, several members of my family have become ill and I have had to care for them as well. My husband, whom has died, live with Huntington disease for several years. I was his caregiver. When my brother had a stroke, he didn't trust anyone else so I cared for him until he was able to maintain on his own. My son, developed heart failure. I immediately stepped in and took total care of him. Through my diligence, he is now a new man; maintaining his heart condition with enjoyable life! I enjoy caring for others because it gives me a satisfaction to know they are going to receive the best of care, because I will always give my best. It is the way I would want to be treated with love and respect.
