About Sue

I am 53 and I love people. I was with my grandparents a lot growing up and I love elders. I love to hear their stories and I learn so much from them. I am loving and I want the best for them... I always tell them to use it if you are able or lose it... once it is gone we can't go back... I want them to do what they can themselves. I love to read, I have two small dogs. And I love to be outside with fresh air. I love cooking, cleaning, baking, and doing anything that has to do with helping people. I like yard work. I do love doing laundry. I am a person that wants to be with people all the time, it at the end of my day I am ready for me time with my fur babies.. I do go to bed early 8:30 to 9:30 but I get up early. I like to get up and do what has to be done, done.i am not a procrastinator . I like to get all my work done before I leave for the evening. I get close to those that I work with and I think of them as my family. I want the best care for my family and I will give you the best of me and my care while I care for you...

I went to the assisted living where Elaine Patrick resided and took care of her. I gave her meds, bathed her, dressed her, got her meals for her, fixed food, cleaned and did laundry and put it away... made bed whatever she needed I would help with or do it... I stayed with her 22 hours a day... I would run home and shower and get lunch and go right back... she passed in November right before Thanksgiving... at the age of 100...

The love I have for people whom can't help themselves what has help me to be a great caregiver from working in daycares to working in private homes with other love ones. What attracted me to being a caregiver is my family gave care for years I watched my mother work in nursing homes to private duty nursing as a little girl growing up to have a heart. What I enjoy the most about caregiving is seeing a smile on there face just to know a stranger can care so much. I achieved a heart for people. I achieve growth in the company I work for also I went from working in the homes to working in the office. I was so proud of myself

I have always had a desire for helping people especially the elderly. It's been a very rewarding career choice that I have always enjoyed doing. Knowing that I can help promote a person's well being towards maintaining their independence is rewarding to me. When I worked with a dementia client, helped to recall some of her memories through writing and reading exercises. My sister had many health problems in which; I encouraged her through daily functions similar to what she would do at home, helped with her transition from home to nursing home. Also, when I received my certification in nursing. I am a christian, loving,caring,devoted,reliable,efficient,responsible and love unity of family. My hobbies are reading, walking, meditate, pray, visit the sick and shut in, movies, love to volunteer my time helping those in need. I am a non smoker, do not drink alcohol, don't do any type of drugs. I have excellent references.
