About Phyllis

I believe that I am a wonderful caregiver because I enjoy helping people. I also have great deal of patience and empathy for others. I began my career as a caregiver after taking care of my mother and sisters through their long-term illness. I also helped to care for a neighbor periodically while she was recovering from a broken hip. I realized that I received a great deal of satisfaction from giving to others. I have the ability to convince patients to follow doctors instructions when they would ordinarily not do so. I have been know to get even the most irritable client to smile.

I grew up watching my parents taking care of my grand parents , I guess it comes naturally to me doing the same . Taking care of other gives you that inner satisfaction which is hard to find in other work settings. I'm proud to be a Nurse . I'm registered nurse from a foreign country working as certified nursing assistant with extensive experience working with seniors with different healthcare needs and trained to work with a lot of diverse cultures and settings. http://www.thequint.com/2015/aprhttp://www.thequint.com/2015/apr/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret
