I'm very reliable dependable trustworthy caring and patient. I love caring for people. I enjoy making people feel comfortable and to know that someone other than family cares for them. Ive been in the profession for a long time and my compassion and love has grown more than I could ever imagine. I'm proud to say I love my job. Cant see myself doing anything other than. I'm human so I also have a since of humor.

Getting on a personal level, years ago, my father in law became ill with throat cancer. Over time he worsened. Hospice care was needed. Our family was close, I decided to give up my job and become his aide. We did Hospice at home and I was responsible for tube feeding him, changing and cleaning his feeding tube, grooming, medication distribution and basically making him as comfortable as he could be with love. This was heartbreaking and it made me realize that I have a passion for taking care of people in need. After his passing, I found work in health care. I chose to care for seniors and Veterans. I found myself paying extra close attention to seniors and veterans and going above and beyond my job title. Years later; my ex mother in law became very sick, dementia and Alzheimer's. Those are one of the worst diseases I've ever seen. I aided to her as best I could on my own. The disease overtime progressed so terribly that they decided to put her into a home, I found myself spending 4-5 hours a day after work just to be with her and comfort her, even though most of the time I was unrecognizable to her. I care. I have a passion for it. I have a huge heart. To know me it's to understand.
