About Rachael

I became a caregiver because I love to help others. Because I don't believe in nursing homes; unless care has become more than family can provide at home. Because sometimes those we love just need an extra helping hand to stay in a home they are comfortable in and love. I love seeing my patients eyes light up when they know I'm there to help. When they become part of me just like an extension of my own family. Becoming an EMT was a goal I set for myself a few years back and I was very proud of accomplishing my goal. I love knowing that no matter what situation I find myself in, I'm more than capable and confident to handle the situation in a calm, caring, efficient manner.

    I am very compassionate and patient, I also always go above and beyond to make sure I am the best caregiver I can be. I have a younger brother who was born with cerebral palsy and I always took care of him without feeling like I had to, that's when I knew what I was meant to do with my life. I started working in a nursing home when I was 16 and and then switched to home health care and I have enjoyed caring for others ever since.
