About Mercedes

I am a very loving, caring and conpationate person. Very determined and willing to learn more every day. I have done home care in the past and I can honestly say it's the only thing that has brought joy to work. The feeling you get when you have helped someone's life become that much easier is an unexplainable feeling, words can't explain. I have at least 8 yrs homecare experience as well as a certificate in homecare.

I have always worked In the medical Field since I was out of high school. I have experience in resolving unpaid medical bills since one of my previous jobs was just doing that. Another job I had was working with an eye specialist so I do know about glasses, contacts, optics, etc. I always get the best prices for my family and friends. My mom has diabetes so I always try to make sure she eats right. In fact I had taken nutrition classes just for her. I take ungoing courses because I enjoy learning about health.
