About Abbey

I've always been a very empathetic person. Before I started this job, I spent about a year caring for my grandma in our home and they was my first "job" as a caregiver. I was told I was very kind and caring and great at what I knew how to do, and I tried really hard. When I was a housekeeper here at Chancellor Health Care I would watch how some people took care of the residents and it hurt my heart. So my friend talked me into becoming a caregiver. And I love it, it's hard mentally and physically but I know someone has to do it and I would rather it be someone who actually cares about the people they're taking care of, not just getting the job done.

I was initially a housekeeper for a couple months, and then switched to caregiving. I work in memory care and I love what I do. Showering, toileting, feeding as well as general physical and mental checks on residents throughout the day. Also doing large loads of laundry, changing linens and cleaning closets. Serving out dinner and riding with residents to doctor appointments or ER visits.
