About Megan

I am very compassionate with my patients, and the ones I care for. I became a caregiver because I helped my grandparents throughout their time here with me and fell in love with it. I have a big heart and lots of love to give. I like to give my patients a purpose and show them that they matter. I take each one I care for as if they were my own family.

I am very passionate when it comes to taking care of others. Ever since I was a teenager, I knew in my heart that helping those in need was my calling. I started nursing school in college and then went straight to work at hospitals, nursing homes, and at the comfort of people's homes. I am an advocate for the Alzheimer's Association, and volunteer as a caregiver support group facilitator. I have two children who are growing too fast, and a mother who is a cancer survivor who I took care of. Also, I am a lover of animals and have no problems taking care of them as well.

I take care of the client with Respect and Dignity. Treat them as my own. I go the extra mile to exceed not just to meet the clients expectations. When the company that I worked for had closed down a friend of mine introduced me to care giving. I learned a lot from different people about food, cultures, traditions through care giving. I am proud that through care giving I earned my Associate's Degree in Business Management.
