My name is pronounced Bee-so. I am a responsible, caring and honest caregiver, who is trustworthy, compassionate and empathetic, and very dependable. I have over 15 years of experience working with patients who have been diagnosed with Dementia secondary to Alzheimer disease and those who have suffered traumatic brain injury related to strokes, motor vehicle accidents or drug abuse. While an undergraduate student at Henderson State University, I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant for four years at various Nursing Homes and Rehabiliation centers, primarily providing care to elderly patients with a variety of diseases ranging from Arthritis to Cardiovascular issues, and from Diabetes and Depression to Hypertension. Upon relocating to Texas, I continued working as a CNA but also started working as a Rehabilitation Assistant at a well-known Traumatic Brain Injury facility during which time I provided personal care, grooming services, transportation and companionship assistance to various activities such as exercise, grocery shopping, movies. During all this time, I had to document the patient's progress throughout the day, as well as give medications. I also have over a year of experience working with Cancer patients, both undergoing chemotherapy and also in Hospice. And several years of experience in the medical and mental health field as a student of medicine. I recently completed a certification in Drug and Alcohol Abuse Counseling, and while preparing for my internship, I am available to provide assistance and companionship to your loved one.

I have been a caregiver for 7 years now. In 2002, I went to school for C.N.A, I also went to school in 2014 for pharmacy technician to help me understand different medications so I could help my clients better understand their medications. I enjoy forfilling people lives, and helping them to be able to stay in their home and not miss a beat in their daily lives. I have cared for individuals from young to old, healthy with only the need of some assistance to individuals in hospice care. Being a caregiver has giving me a for filling life that I cherish daily.
