About Brittany

Hello! My name is Brittany. I have been a caregiver for over 10 years. I love what I do. I love to make people smile even in tough times. I have worked for Options Inc. , Right hand senior care, Island Enterprises, and Home Instead senior care. I have worked with patients who have had Alzheimer's, dementia and those who just needed assistance. I wanted to become a caregiver because of my aunt. She had Down's syndrome and couldn't communicate properly. She passed away because of a ruptured hernia that made her very sick. Her doctors failed her because she was a "difficult" patient, they didn't want to take the proper steps to care for her. I want to be an advocate for my patients and their families. I want to make a difference. Being a caregiver is not just a job to me. I'm able to come in and help and meet new people every day. It gives me a chance to share some of my sunshine with others.

Hello I have over ten years of caregiving experience. Being a professional caregiver is my calling and I enjoy being able to make a difference in my clients lives by providing the professional care they need . I'm a very compassionate person and caring and I'm also a dependable person and I am tru to my work as a caregiver. I have worked in nursing homes, assisted living and in home and when I'm connected with a client I treat them like family cause I feel that they are my family. What attracted me to becoming a caregiver is because when I was a lil girl I use to love to take care of my grandmother and always wanted to become a nurse or caregiver. I am proud to say that I feel like I achieved that goal as becoming a caregiver.
