About Kimberly

I honestly think that I was given a gift to take care of the elderly. I always enjoyed my grandparents a little bit more than my siblings. I spent more time with them helping them with the garden doing crafts shopping with my grandmother. I have over 20 years of nursing home and Home Health experience. I just feel like I understand them better than most. I know how to get them to do more than they thought they could. I respect them, and treat the people I care for with dignity. I have an energetic outgoing personality and I'm very compassionate and affectionate.
