My name is Stephanie and I have been caring for the elderly for almost 10 years! I am very compassionate, patient, caring, and understanding!

I enjoy helping and seeing the faces of the patients when helping them!

I was born a caregiver. All throughout my life, even as a child, I had to "take care" of everyone and everything. It was what gave me personally,the best feeling of assisting someone else in their personal growth and well being. Giving care both allows me to give my clients the best possible care which will enable them to achieve their best possible ability to have independence and dignity as well as being able to live their life to their to the fullest extent. This allows me to feel as if I have been able to make a difference in their life. One of the proudest, personal achievements in my life is the fact that I just graduated with my Bachelors of Science in Nursing from MCPHS University at 52 1/2 years old and was able to keep up with all my younger colleagues on both an academic level as well as a physical level. I had never attended college after high school, so I had to start my education from the very beginning reviewing my math and relearning my sciences as so many things had changed since I graduated high school. My personal life experiences will provide me to give my patients the best possible care available.
