About Carmen

I have been a caregiver for over 10 years both for the state and administratively. I love assisting and caring for geriatric residents and spending time to care for their needs. I like the ability to share stories and time with them. Personally, I am proud that I am a small business owner that has raised two children one off to the Marines and the other a hard, working lady, like myself. I live in Lewisville and seek to find opportunities in the area. I love reading, watching television and cooking.

    My understanding of each client condition. My ability to communicate effectively with client. My patience, thoughtfulness, and a cheerful disposition. Knowledge of medical terminology and medical experience. My great sense of humor. Professional attitude and great demeanor. I had a friend who's mother was in a nursing home with dementia and her mother wondered out of the nursing home and was almost hit by a car. Since then, I developed this great part of caring for the elderly and naturally, I'm a loving and caring person. Just being able to see my client smile all day and to lighten their day up. Makes me joyful. I was able to get a client who was a diabetic, hypertensive, wounds, etc. Who was on serveral medications for various condition. Cut back on most of the medications and the doctors where amaz. Just pleases my heart. Most of all my dependebility.
