About Adam

For over a decade I have worked in Emergency Medical Services. I love the job and all that comes with it. Healthcare covers such a broad spectrum, but at the end of the day, it is about people who need some kind of help, and people who are able to help. I enjoy being helpful, and I enjoy making an impact in someones life, no matter how big or small. Everything from assisting someones recovery and seeing them walk again, all the way to just being comfortable in peaceful moments. People everywhere need help, and I pride myself on being accountable, dependable, and reliable.

I believe I'm a great caregiver because I am passionate and caring I love taking care of people and helping them anything I could do to make a person's life better makes me feel better about myself. I started in the field because I do enjoy caring for people so much. I have dealt with all kinds of people from different age ranges with a range of different issues that they may need assistance with and I have always loved doing what I'm doing and I will continue to love doing what I'm doing. I have tried other career paths and they just weren't for me and I honestly believe that caregiving and taken care of and helping people is what I was meant to do.
