About Shirley

I became a caregiver because I enjoy working with people. I treat the whole family. It is important to understand the history of the family in treating the client. I have a lot to offer in the services I provide. I provide exceptional, caring and compassionate love in treating my clients as I would like someone to treat my mom or dad. My personal achievement with clients, is allowing clients to continue with their normal activities such as going to church, movies, dinner and theater. I sometimes take clients out for a drive, showing them the changes in areas where they grew up. I enjoy talking to them and letting them feel that they matter. I am a very caring and understanding person. I have great verbal and written communication skills. I work well with family members in assisting them in understanding what their loved ones are going through by recommending that they attend classes to better understand their love ones disease. Life is 10% broken and 90% what we do to change it.

I enjoy working with people and I most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoyed taking care of my elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day. I don't ever say, "That's not my job" but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better. I take pride in attending to detail.
