About Donna

I became a caregiver when my mother developed Alzheimer's when she passed I went to work in a private home with Alzheimer and Dementia patients. I loved being a part of their everyday activities from bathing to putting on makeup and styling their hair. I'm a firm believer in taking care of our elders they're the ones that deserve to be treated with dignity, respect and love. I am very thankful and blessed to be able to make a difference in all of their lives whenever the opportunity arises!! I'm energetic, outgoing and very reliable because I understand the importance of their everyday needs.

I've worked as a nurse assistant over 16 yrs caring for disabled, elderly, ill, and mentally challenged clients. I have worked in nursing home, hospital, home care, senior facility, respite care, private duty, direct care service, and hospice care, and trained in massage. I like to challenge myself as a caregiver with promoting new work skills. My time is giving care to others, that cannot do for themselves. My achievement is to see my three children succeed in the life that values them. For myself, to be recognized for my work performance, that's giving to each individual that has been cared for, show appreciation. I had several resident tell me that I'm wonderful, and I had a tearful moment. It's a blessing to hear positive thinking from a client. I'm a certified assistant living manager, private caregiver, and studied massage technique . Thank You.

I decided to be a caregiver after my parents where sick, I wanted them to feel loved at all times when someone was caring for them. You have to have patience when caring for someone. I love listening to clients stories from when they were young.
