About Virginia

I am a very easy going person with a huge heart. I thoroughly enjoy working with people who need help, whether temporary or permanent. I have been told I am very good with dementia patient's, but I enjoy all sorts of people I became attracted to becoming a Caregiver when I was 10 yrs old because my mother and I lived with my uncle and took care of him during the last 5 yrs of his life. I enjoy caring for people because I know I am doing the best I can to make their quality of life better. I am very proud of taking care of multiple family members. I am also proud that I obtained my CNA license. I did let it expire, but I'm in the process of obtaining it again.
