About Christine

I really enjoy being a caregiver. I started out working at St. John Hospital caring for patients with all kinds of alignments. I learned thru the hospital how to really care for the elderly. When leaving the hospital I did start home care. I loved it. I love listening to the seniors and hearing their stories, holding their hand or listening to their concerns. To be a good caregiver, you must be very compassionate and patient. I am very reliable and always on time.
