About DAWNE

As I was training for nursing I landed a job at a rehab center working with Traumatic Brain Injury adults and development infants on vents. Life happens &I had to end my nursing training to work FT to finish raising my children. I became cert as CNA & licensed as EMT. This proved to be a life changing journey into healthcare. Since then, I have thoroughly enjoyed working with folks, all health conditions, live to their best. Safety is important as is taking a 'whole-isitic' approach esp for persons wanting to be in their home. Respectful, friendly, positive, open-minded, reliable & willing to go the extra mile - for a smile! You, your home, your beloved pets & plants are in good hands! 17 years experience to share!

I am a fun and loving caring caregiver. I love having my patients laugh and have a good day. It makes me smiles. I like helping all types of people. I was taking care of an ALS patient just seeing him smile and getting him out and about was the best achievement we had together.
