About Derrick

Hi my name is derrick, I've been a care giver for over 9 years in various roles. I'm currently a cna, but also worked as a advance care tech for upmc for 3 years. The reason I love being a care giver is my aunt suffered from MS for 20 years, so care giving kinda came natural. I love to interact and genuinely love people, and if giving a chance will be a excellent care giver to your family.
