    I was a caregiver for my quadriplegic son until his passing at age 15. He taught me patience, being kind and self-care. I believe in treating people with kindness and go the extra mile for someone. I have worked with elder people for 8 years now. I enjoy using music therapy and crafts to relaxation my client. I have attended classes on Dementia and Alzheimer's. Taking care of people isn't just a job but a passion.

    I have been a home and hospice aide for 14 years. I wanted to get in this field because I took care of my grandmother that past away. She was in a nursing home and she didn't receive the best care so I took her home. I have worked for a hospice company for 14 years while taking care of patients in homes as well as in nursing homes. I love what I do and give all my patients care like I would my own family.
