About Shakita

I'm a honest, compassionate, reliable and dedicated individual that's been in the healthcare field for over ten years. I enjoy working with individuals that are in need of extra assistance with their activities of daily living because I know my work will appreciated and valued. I've worked in group homes, day programs, client homes and I've also have been a housing manger for a group home. I prefer to work with one or two individuals who does not have exposure to various of people or outside as much, due to the pandemic that's currently going on. I currently do work full time home, so I do not have much exposure to the outside world unless it's going to the grocery store.
