About Lourdes

What makes me a great care giver is that I love care for those in a vulnerable position, I have a lot of empathy and compassion for them. I am a very patient person that is always willing to take that extra time to make things happen. What I like the most about being a caregiver is that personal connection with the patient, it is absolutely rewarding to see how loved and cared my patient feel. I am so proud of my level of commitment and willingness to learn more about good care in order to perform better as a caregiver. And the most important, my love for God and the desire to serve him and be his hands and feet.
