About Pamela

In 2010 after being employed by the Boeing Company for 23 years , I was laid off as a result of a workforce reduction. At that time Boeing had contracted with Wichita Area Tech College to give their employees an opportunity to explore other career options. So I took advantage of this 2 year program and went back to school to explore jobs in health care. I acquired a Certified Nurse Aide certificate in 2011 in Kansas and worked for 2 years in an Assisted Living facility. In 2012, I retired from the Boeing Company and moved to Dallas to be closer to my oldest daughter and grandson. It was here I started working as a Caregiver in senior home care. I have found I enjoy this type of care setting because I am able to give more compassionate, personable care and spend more valuable time as opposed to feeling rushed in a facility setting. I pride myself in doing the best possible job I can when caring for clients in their homes. I'm not there to just put in my time and go home, I am there to give the client the best possible care they deserve.

Growing up being the oldest of 6 siblings I had to be the caregiver due to my mother working long hours as a nurse. In my adult life I've had many jobs but no fulfillment until I started caring for others. I found my purpose and calling. I truly enjoy/ love being a caregiver it brings so much joy and self gratification. My mother played a big part of why I love being a caregiver. seeing the love, she gave, and the return love played a big roll. It feels good to know that I have gained a client trust as well as the assurance that I will take care of them. To see them smile or just help them through a rough day knowing that they can count on me is a great reward. I've had a client I had just started with ask me, is this just a job or do you care? I care about what I do. This is one of the biggest questions that a client or family member has when looking for a caregiver. Staying positive, going beyond the call of duty, compassionate, caring, outgoing, patience, etc. To have the opportunity to care for your loved one or self would be a privilege and a blessing.
