About Sean

Hello! I consider myself to be an empathetic individual who genuinely cares for the well being of people are unable to fully care for themselves. My child hood was spent growing up over seas with two parents who were travelling nurses. Currently, I am applying to nursing schools to follow in their foot steps. I have been involved in care giving, in one form or another, for most of my life. As a child, I helped with other children that my parents would foster in Haiti and also in bush clinics they would run. As a young adult, I helped people of all ages care for their health with nutritional, athletic, and safety advice at the YMCA. While in school, I also volunteered at a nursing home, which taught me how to care for people with different forms of dementia and mental illness. I am currently a personal trainer with knowledge in physical therapy, yoga, martial arts, and resistance training. I also currently just finished my Associates of Science in Health and Kinesiology and am a care giver for an immobile gentleman with severe Cerebral Palsy. Thank you for taking the time to read this. I would love to hear from you!

    I have been involved in in-home care giving for over 25 years because I like helping others. I believe that a person is happier and can be better cared for at home than anywhere else, and I have worked and trained to help make that happen. I have also been involved with clients in the hospital, a senior home or assisted living facility, in a rehabilitation hospital, and under the care of hospice. I like preparing nutritious meals, planning activities, and participating in good conversation. I am interested in sports, plays and movies, board games, jigsaw puzzles, and arts and crafts. I also am an avid reader. Though I really enjoy cooking, occasional dining out is also fun.
