I've been taking care of any ages mostly elderly since then...working with Alzheimer's, Dementia, Stroke, Hospice, Parkinson and my spare time I do baby sitter job. I really love it. and if you don't you will not be good at this job. all of us, at some points in our life we will be a caregiver, by choice or necessity or both. Home Care is a personal experience. And I'm just thankful I am able to do this for them. Praise the LORD, He has giving me straight to make difference, It just became easier for me to be the caregiver. I'm the best person for the job, And I have more experience of caregiver. All of this qualities gave them the reassurance and confidence in me that I could do the job. And I have the ability to stay focused in stressful situations, I know I would be a great addition to the team. And I am honest, a good person and most of all...I'm a (TLC) Tender Loving Care who love the job as a Caregiver. I realized that caring for people, especially the elderly, was my calling. <3
