About Marcia

I became a medical assistant to help people. In working in a physician office I had the experience of working with all ages. In this day I have seen more elderly people trying to live at home who need some help with care in order to stay at home. Some of the elder are trying to stay together as long as possible but due to age can not give the care that is need for the other person. With insurance not wanting to cover for a long stay at a hospital for patient, more are sent home to recover and are in need of extra help in order to recover. This can put a strain on the family life of having to take care of an ill member and with help can help in the recover of the love one and aid in making family life more normal. With help of a care giver it can relieve the burden which is placed on a family member when a love one is ill or in need of care. With my life experience I have work with many different types of people, old to young, some better off than others, and all types of races. We all have family and loves ones that at time need help whether it is from a family member or some one else we all can use a helping hand.

    I am a certified occupational therapy assistant by education. I completed my Bachelors in Organizational Management and Leadership. In February 2019, I resigned from my senior leadership position in the rehabiliation/healthcare industry. I have a passion for the senior population with a specialization with dementia care. I would like to give a family security as I care for their love one. Primary care givers deserve a sense of relief as they too can become consumed with the patient needs. I bring energy, a positive attitude, and "we've got this" approach everyday. I am a passionate advocate for the individual and families facing uncertainty.

    I am a very caring person who has an excellent work ethic, pays attention to detail, can multitask well, keeps calm in stressful situations, and a very good listener. I work in a pharmacy currently and really try to build a relationship as much as I can with patients, but I would love to do a lot more. I will care for people at their home to really build a relationship and be a companion to someone who might be lonely. I am starting school at Johnson county community college to become a registered nurse and start my cna certification in October of this year. I would love to build homecare experience this way!
