About Susan

I am a retired O.R. Scrub Nurse. I started to do Homecare in 2005, when both my husband and my aging mother needed my help. My husband was recovering from a Pneumonectomy because of Lung Cancer, and my mother was beginning to show signs of Alzhiemer's . After that time, I realized that I loved having more of a personal relationship with my patient's. I have been taking cases since that time, and have worked with people suffering with : ALS, Alzhiemer's, Parkinson's Disease, diabetes, and in need of post- operative care. In some cases, the patient just needed a caring and compassionate companion. I love hearing people's life stories, and I am very understanding as they adjust to this sometimes difficult part of life. I have references available upon request. I would love to speak with you to see if we could be a good team in making your loved ones life (or your life) as comfortable and stable as possible. This would also take some of the burden off the family, and help them in their relationship with the patient. This can be a very difficult time for the patient and his/her loved ones. I would love to help. I have experience and am proficient in most medical equipment.

I have an innate sense of selflessness and empathy is embedded in my personality and I am good listener.I am a compassionate, honesty, reliable person that care about people. I have been working in the personal care profession for several years. I decided to become a caregiver because I enjoy providing care to people of different ages. It gives me great satisfaction to know that I am helping someone and this job enables me to make a difference in the daily lives of my clients. My client misplaced her money I helped her to find it and put it in a secure place, she was concern that she would forget where she put her money. She speaks five languages, so I told her choose one of the language and write it down on a piece of paper and put on the refrigerator. She was very grateful that I helped her to solve her problem and I am very proud that I was able to help her.
