About Michelle

I enjoy helping others. I am patient, gentle, empathetic and a very good listener. I believe any obstacle can be conquered with the right tools and a positive team on your side. Understanding, compassion and a positive outlook can make a world of difference in a person's life, including their overall health and well-being. I began working in the healthcare field at the age of 18. I believe I have found my true purpose in life. My goal with each individual is to provide excellent care while making them feel respected and at ease while helping to maintain a positive self image and feeling of independence. Seeing the look of pride and accomplishment in a person's eyes when setting and accomplishing a goal is very rewarding.

I have worked with mainly elderly patients in ophthalmology for 32 years. I have become very close to to alot of my patients. I became close friends with an elderly neighbor who had no family in this country. I took her to her doctor appointments and was with her when she passed away. I am still very close to some of the patients who I worked with. I have helped with my mother's care when I have visited her in Florida where she lives with my sister. She requires help walking and also showering. She and I love to play cards! I am also a CASA volunteer.
