About Nancy

I was really sick 20 years ago. I got better finally. But through the course of my illness I met some really wonderful caregivers and I wanted to be able to touch someone's life the way they touched mine. I absolutely love caring for individuals that cannot care for themselves. I like to make them comfortable in anyway possible. I believe that the care you give is the way you would want to be treated. My most recent position really touched my heart. I worked with clients with traumatic brain injury. I absolutely loved caring for them. They had normal lives just like you and me until one day they had a tragic accident that changed their life forever. I cared for 3 guys. Each one sustained a TBI through a tragic motor vehicle accident. They were very unique and each one had a personality that just touched my heart. Unfortunately, I had to leave the company as I recently relocated to Miami, FL to be closer to family. I want to continue that care here in Florida!!
