About John

I was one of my Mother's main caregivers during her entire 13 year Alzheimer's journey. I was her companion and driver during the early years, then her housekeeper and cook progressing to her nurse, managing medications, then changing diapers, lifting from place to place, ultimately turning her to prevent bed sores. By the time she passed away in August of 2015, I had become an expert caregiver. Deciding to return to the work force, I now understand the blessing of taking care of those whose age or condition has created extreme challenges.

Furthermore, I make sure to be on time with the patients, for distance doesn't matter as long as I am able to provide care, love and affection to them. So that early in the morning, happiness and joy would fill in not just to the patients' lives but to my life as well. Everytime I work with the patients, It always gives me the feeling of satisfaction and determination to help them live their lives to the fullest. I enjoy working with the patients of all ages and socio-economic backgrounds and have a demonstrated ability to develop great relationship with them and their families.
