About Patricia

I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with seniors. They are interesting people with their stories, wisdom and experiences they share. Also, enjoy adding quality care to their lives. Working in the medical field for years, helping people, is what I do and enjoy. As a chef, I enjoy feeding and reaching people thur their stomachs. Serving eye appealing delicious plates of food and receiving compliments on how much they enjoyed the meal. Well, I am a licensed ordained minister with a BA degree in biblicial studies, chef, graduated from LVN school, widowed, mother of three adult children.
