When client or family member is able to request their wants or needs and the request has been accomplished through the Caregiver it merits instant satisfaction for both Client and Caregiver. I chose not to work for big Companies, because of "POLITICS". Next to winning the Lottery, this is most rewarding job in the industry. A Private Caregiver. Thanks, hope to hear from you soon.

Lynette D. Basquez A little story about me.. In the year 1979 my mother experienced hemorrhaging during a miscarriage. I never felt so helpless, we lost my twin brothers and almost my momma. I knew then at the age of twelve I wanted to help others. In 1989 I entered BTS nursing in where I finally became certified nurse aide. With my children still small I decided my school would have to wait. In the year 2002 after my children had grown up married and now have Blessed me with 15 grandbabies. I entered College for the first time and found it to be very difficult but after two years I finally worked my way into the LVN program in the year 2005 when only 6 months later my Mother was diagnosed with Bladder cancer. So I dropped out of school and quit my job at the ER moved in so I could care for her. However my mother passed away just two short weeks later. Now I realize that my place is to remain a Certified Nurse Aide because I get to actually experience the hands on help for those in need. Weather it is to complete a task or just sit and listen to stories of long ago. I love my job and all of it demands. My goal at the end of each day is to make at least one person smile and I Pray the care I provide has touched the heart in a gentle and kind way. It is extremely important to me to provide compassionate assistance to all in need.
