About Whitney

I feel like a patient should never be rushed. I encourage taking small steps to complete the process of getting ready. I like taking care of people I love when I can help someone, being able to give that extra care and make a persons day is rewarding. When a person feels out of place from a decline. Helping to make things better is always good.

As a caregiver I am compassionate and caring. I decided to become a caregiver after helping care for my grandfather during his end of life. Through my 15+years of being a caregiver I understand what is means for the clients to have the care they deserve, while maintaining their dignity. I pride myself on being a team player and can adapt easily to changes. Attention to detail is important to me as well. What has made me the proudest, is the relationships I have established with my clients and their families.
