About Yvonne

I became a caregiver in September of 1985 right after I got laid off from a previous job during that summer and took a Training Course at Aides at Home Inc. It was an amazing opportunity for me where I had a chance to learn about caring for the elderly. I found lots of enjoyment working as a caregiver especially the interesting stories told to me by many of my clients over all these years and being able to take care of them in the manner that they liked!! The personal achievement I am most proud of was and still is, to hear good reports and the satisfaction my cients gave me over the years and made me feel very welcomed in their homes. Traveling and especially being around friends and family is most important to me including just keeping myself happy and to be more healthy, being outdoors and my favorite of all is going to the movies!! Right now I don't have a car but do have a valid Driver's License in case a client needs to go to doctor appts, do errands or grocery shopping. I can drive their vehicles if need be.

I became a caregiver because I care about the well-being of the elderly. The smile on their faces is overwhelming and makes me feel good inside. I am dependable, responsible, and honored to take care of the patients I meet and have a positive impact on their lives. I have up-to-date CNA and BLS certifications. I also have 6 years' experience working with the elderly, assisting them with eating, bathing, dressing, toileting etc. I get a sense of satisfaction from helping patients feel comfortable and loved.
