About Duchess

I became a Caregiver because I wanted more hands on, more direct patient care. I use to work as a medical secretary and I would go out of my job description to help patients, even if that meant to come from behind the desk. What I love about being a Caregiver, is that, I have a gift in making my patient feel better, my experience and enthusiasm about what I do shows the patients that someone do care, and that helps give them hope. Making my patients feel that they can still have a life after illness have and will always be one of my achievement. I am a happy married women with two children, I am a people person and I get alone with others very well. I am friendly, outgoing and enjoy helping others.
