What makes me a great caregiver is that I have faith in helping others and I want to be helpful in humanity. I want to be a caregiver because when my mom was sick I always helped her and when she passed away I felt like I had a responisablity to help other sick people in the same way. I enjoy being a caregiver because at work I spend all my time doing something good that God appreciates. One personal achievement that I have is that I stuck with one of my patients who wasn't able to walk until she got better and started walking.

Taking care of my mother made me want to be in the health care. I knew that's something I wanted to do, I have been a caregiver for the Grimes Family for past couple years. Meal prepping, peg tube, trig care and suctioning when he needs it. We became family for the past years. I will be more than happy to care for your love one. I am CPR certified and also have all my clearance available.
