About Tammy

I started doing home care after watching what my family went through with my nana that was very stressful and the cost was very high with the companies that offer employment through their companies. I enjoy what I do and with my patients I find that they become like family and that each one deserves the highest form of care and respect. I have done this type of work for many years and have enjoyed it very much and I have been with many of them and their families up til the end of their lives . I have been supportive and helpful as well to the families through it all . I have my background check fbi clearances and child and elder abuse clearances in the state of pa I am proud to do what I do and I hope to be there for you in your life and your families as well

I knew I wanted to work in home health care when I was 15. My grandma lived with us and I would help care for her, and since I wanted to help people and care for them. I was a certified pharmacy technician for 5 years and then decided i wanted to do more to help people so I went back to school get my Medical Assistant Diploma. I have also cared for my own family member who was diagnosed with AML (Acute Myloyid Leukemia).
