About Heather

I am a person who really enjoys helping people. Besides being a wife and mother it's really my only goal in life. Working with people who need the extra help allows me to fulfill that goal. The stories they have and the learning experiences they provide are what brought me to home health care, I could listen to most of my clients for hours. My clients love having someone there that truly listens to them. And I am extremely gental but firm at the same time which allows me to help them in the most efficient way without hurting them, and that gives my clients a piece of mind that I know what I'm doing.

I decided to become a caregiver because I always felt in my heart that I was put on this earth to care for others. Unfortunately I never had the opportunity to go to school to be a nurse but I found way regardless to help others. It's something that really fulfills my life, I love what I do and I would change it for anything.
