About Nicole

I am a caregiver because it is my passion, and I am very experienced in the field of geriatrics. You can say that home care was rooted into me at five. Some of my earliest memories are of my mother taking care of my grandmother at her bedside. In high school I went to college part of the day and obtained my Nursing assistant certification. The ultimate goal even as I entered the Army was to become a PA or a DO. Now we have come full circle and I have my mother living with me who has recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer's. We have been able to see it coming the last two years so I decided to transition from management at an assisted living to home care to be in control of my time. This way I could still work in this field that I love but also be there for my mother when she needs me. I believe that it is an honor and a privilege to take care of our elders in our community and I truly enjoy what I do. I currently work with a dear family I have worked with for going on two years, proud to say their health is improving so I work 10 hours a week and am looking to feel up hours by being able to get to know and help new families. Over the last ten years I have worked in skilled nursing, assisted nursing, rehabilitation centers, VA and home care I am experienced and I love to continue to learn. My main goal with college was to transition from psychology to DO of medicine, but after my husband returned from deployment I did not continue, I do not regret it though, because I have had a chance to personally get to know some amazing families and look forward to new friends along the way but the experience of clinicals in the field of medicine and education in school has stuck with me.
