About Patricia

24 years ago someone introduce me to this profession and I loved it. Enjoy working with elderly or anybody in need. I love to interact with the person and help them in all possible ways. I feel compassion and respect for them. I have helped so many people in need of someone in personal care or emotional and when I see a person's face with happiness and gratefulness, I feel that I have accomplished what I was there for. I am a CNA since 1991, worked in nursing homes about 121/2 years, 2 years in Assisted Living and 101/2 in a Hospital environment. In all those years I did a lot of private duty jobs at patient's homes and also worked with agencies as a caregiver also at their homes. I am 48 yrs old, married and recently relocated from NJ,

    I believe in delivering quality of life for seniors and clients of any age! Showing compassion through sincere listening and being present for the clients I care for is a top priority. Through home visits with various agencies, live-in care, and working with an Assisted Living Center my combined services to the elderly have helped me thrive in the industry of caring. In the realm of younger folks, I drove a school bus for years and taught home schooled children including my own. I taught a class on self-empowerment based on the Chicken Soup for the Soul book series too. The classes I taught were an eye-opener and perhaps opened the door to a new way of viewing life. The life experiences I've had with Seniors who have become family to me and ultimately my friends has given me much more than I could have possibly conceived of giving to them! I found that with kids, being present and seeing the beautiful gifts they have inside always brought those gifts out with the acknowledgement. The services I've provided are most assuredly a soul's calling! Senior care and working with younger folks has been a perfect fit with my desire to make a difference with others, and the kind of career I totally enjoy! I have a knack for understanding human nature and the needs of the heart and naturally, I learned this through my own life experiences. We all are truly one when it comes to matters of the heart and what this life means! Applying the knowledge of our oneness is what the care of others is all about. I'm seeing my own reflection in the hearts of those that I serve in this type of work. From that seeing, I give the best of who I am to others! Importantlly too is the fact that I am CPR and First Aid Certified and have over 20 years experience caring for Seniors.
