About Diane

I think a good caregiver is a person who can add value to the client, as well as peace of mind to the family. Empathy for the client, in their need for care and respect for the relinquish of medical and personal privacy. Understanding, goes hand in hand with the family when caring for a loved one. Often family members are overwhelmed with concern about the care of parents and close relatives. A good caregivers is competent and professional, loves people and enjoys helping others. In addition a good caregiver is someone you can trust to come to work, and learn to depend on to fulfill the needs of the client.
