About Debbie

Hi, I enjoy being around people. I have a great personality. My smile is contagious. I have a positive attitude. I figure, as the saying goes, "Life is a gift, unwrap it and see what is inside. I've been a caregiver for HomeInstead Senior Care in PA and Synergy Care in Illinois. I enjoyed working at both places. I discontinued my work at these place due to relocation. I have been an Activity Assistant at Belmont Assisted Living. I enjoy many things about care giving. I particularly like the company I can give when family can not be present. I know what it is like to feel lonely when you are in the house by yourself. As I look at my life, I've had opportunities to volunteer and do wonderful things. I have touched the lives of many people and they have touched mine. My biggest achievement as of this date is working toward a second career. I'm not finished yet but determined.
