About Doris

I became a care giver because i like to help people. I love seeing people feel loved and be confident. i love being able to hear stories and help clients still live to their fullest independence level. I am looking to go into the healthcare field as an administrator and I believe that care giving is a great way to understand the needs of the patient that I can use in the future. I also love the flexibility of hours.

    It has been my privilege to lovingly care for elderly people with dementia, starting with my mother-in-law. I enjoy entering their world and showing them the dignity, respect and gentle care our elders should have. I have become the trusted companion of each person I’ve cared for, and have served several of them for years at a time. Support for the family of the person I am companion to is a special part of my ministry. I am currently a part-time seminary student and simply love people. My desire is to bring joy and wisdom in caregiving to those I serve.
