About Dorothy

1) I started taking care of my grandmother at 15,and doing missionary work in church with her or to the public.She made me make a promise to her that I would never stop assisting others who are ill. 2) The drive and determination of my career has kept focused and grounded to know this job is about helping people live again. 3) Going back to college to obtain my BA in Healthcare Management. 4) I am dedicated to my patients and I fell in love with the attributes I possess when it comes to being empathetic to others this is my calling and I loved it from the first day I started my career as a CNA/HHA.

Compassionate caregiver over 5 years who has helped clients with dementia, diabetes, and more. Care giving has been my passion since I helped care for my father who suffered with congestive heart failure & diabetes. The last senior I cared for told me that I was one of the kindest people he had ever met. The elderly has a wealth of knowledge that they love to share about life and their experiences. 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.
