About Tracey

Hi! I've been an RN for 26 yrs. I LOVE caring for others and all that comes with being a nurse. I'm not necessarily looking for high-tech, intensive nursing right now. I'm more interested in getting out of the house to be of use to someone who needs some assistance at home or out in the community. Our 3 sons are grown and out on their own now. I've been home for a couple years, caring for my husband who is a traumatic brain injury survivor, so if you need help, I'll RUN out the door. I have a great sense of humor, am joyful and have a deep sense of faith. I'm loyal, compassionate, detail-oriented, punctual, honest and hard-working. I love pets, crafting in my free time and New England Patriots fan! I love to organize and then reorganize as a hobby. If you think I could be of help to you and/or your family please feel free to contact me. Thank you!

I'm a compassionate caring person who enjoy the company of seniors,I believe we have a lot to learn from our seniors and they have a lot to impart also.My current job offers me the opportunity to interact with seniors of every personality and health requirements...I was raised by my grandmother and I think the love of the elderly came from being around her,she taught me alot. My passion has been ignited to assist those persons who helped to shape all our lives.....our elderly pupulation.

I'm a great worker Dependable trustworthy hard-working I've been in private caregiving for the past 4 years I love what I do.When I'm with them I try to make them as happy as possible. Getting them to do things that they love to do! Exercising, experience with dementia am Alzheimer's disease. Walking puzzles, playing card, shopping ect, bathing showering cleaning house doing laundry and taking them to appointments especially hair appointments that they love. I absolutely love taking care of the elderly so they can stay in their homes as long as possible. Something I love to do giving back is one of the most important things in my life so caring for them at their age helps me fill my soul never had grandparents I think this is why I do what I do when I was a little girl I was in the hospital in and out and the nurses were absolutely wonderful to me so my whole life I've always wanted to be a nurse but took another path and got married and had children so now I think this is the best thing for me that I can do is close enough as being a real nurse is taking care of the elderly as.
