About Kristy

I have over 20 years experience in the healthcare field. I have worked with all types of patients. I have colostomy, uriostomy, trach care, g-tube feeds, straight cathing. I am patient, kind and compassionate. I have worked extensively with alzheimer's and dementia patients. I know the key is to keep their mind sharp, however that happens. Puzzles, games, or just talking about memories that keep them thinking. I like to think outside the box and get the job done. I have a great sense of humor and my clients feel at ease with me. I treat them as if they were my mom, dad, grandma, grandpa etc.

I'm loving caring giving encouraging I believe in being a solution to a problem. My passion is to help people rather is to just cheered them up give them some encouraging words maybe even a smile. I lost my mom 3 1/2 years ago and then going through that process it definitely enlighten me and encouraged me to want to give back and help seniors and older people in our community it was a great experience, tough but great experience and what I like most about being a caregiver is just making a difference in somebody else's life making them smile. Just knowing somebody else is there my personal achievement is being able to be there for my mom it meant a lot .
