About Patricia

Passion for senior care is the driving force for returning back to senior homecare. Being a Real caregiver is not a job it is a calling. It comes natural and does not require prompting or persuading. Such a calling is from the heart and can only be satisfied by serving others. It is a pleasure to identify with and comfort those who are in need of a helping hand. For example, as a resident of a 55 years and older community, on a cold December 2017 afternoon a distressed resident was identified. Immediate assistance was given with a swift follow up visit. In the follow up visit it was discovered that the apartment was void of any furniture. The distressed resident had been sleeping in a cold apartment on the cold floor. With much compassion, care and concern necessary items were gathered for the comfort of the distressed resident. Such items were purchased, delivered and set up as a gift. And as an advocate, the rental office was notified of the heating unit needing repair. Follow up visits have continued to insure their well being. Pay is not the driving force for doing what one loves. I am a caregiver by nature and from my heart.
