About Sally

I have been a paralegal for over 25 years. At the time of my aunt's illness, I was unemployed and able to take care of her 24/7. When I worked for Mrs. Margentino, it was on a part time basis. I also lived with and took care of my mother for 30 years, taking her to doctors, administering her medicine, shopping and light housekeeping, and preparing home cooked breakfast, lunch and dinner until she passed away in 2015. I also taught adult education coursed part time at an Adult High School for 20 years. This included counseling between parent and their children from time to time.

Growing up my family worked and managed a nursing home, this started my connection with caregiving. By my early teen years I started to take care of my grandparents and some of their frineds so this has continued throughout my life into my mid 20's. Now I live in a whole new state and miss that connection greatly. I enjoy talking, helping, and getting to know all who I encounter. I'm verying caring and determined when it comes to the people I bring into my life. This isn't just a job it's something that I truly love doing.

1. What makes me like a great caregiver is that I treat my patient like my own family, I always to my mind that taking my patient is like I'm also taking care of my family 2. I love doing caregiving because it is my passion to take care of them, love them and give them the needs they needed, 3. I enjoyed most being caregiver is that being able to handle the behavior your patient is giving to you and yet you find your self it is very interesting and you still love your patient. It's like loving them with out asking for return to love you back 4. Personal achievement I am proud of is that I was able to stay calm in times of emergency when my patient oxygen sat went down to 52%, when shes having difficulty in breathing, she became cyanotic or become blue and I was doing a back percussion to her, her breathing went back to normal, (Ps. She had most form so I couldn't able to do CPr- that's why back percussion was applied)
