About Dorothy

I became a caregiver, I enjoy being around people in general. I enjoy helping others, putting a smile on someone's face means a lot to me, the smallest things we take for granted in life means the world to some one who can't sit, stand or tie their own shoe or even feed themselves. My personal achievements I am proud of are: being a Mother and Grand mother, CNA for 20 + years, CMA, Medical record's clerk. I have worked in nursing homes, hosputals, Dr's offices, assisted and independent living facilities. I am a very passionate person, I am a good listener and I enjoy what I do.
