About John

I met a woman whom was in an assisted living and was not receiving the kind of care she needed. I then began to learn what was needed to take care of her. I was blessed with 6 wonderful years as her caregiver. I was trained and signed off by her primary care physician and Medicaid ot do trach care, supra pubic catheter care, and wound care. I love the fact that she went from sitting in a 400 sf apartment to living in my home and getting out and being a part of the community. The last 6 years of her life were the happiest years of her adult life. I have a new found outlook on life and want to help another person to live there life not just exist. I give all of myself to my work.

    I enjoy helping others that can no longer do all the things they used to be able to do. I enjoy seeing you smile as well. There are so many great things about this profession that in my opinion takes a special person to do this job. I just recently moved to Las Vegas and I look forward to working for you. If I'm a live in I do have one dOG that has to come with me. Also with the live in I won't have a car until I can save $ to get one.
