About Priscilla

Hello my name is Priscilla. I have many years experience working in various disciplines, with a strong concentration on senior and physiological. Helping people is my passion. Working with my grandmother for a number of years has been some of my proudest moments. I was very fortunate to be able to care for her until the very end. That is one of the many reasons I chose nursing.

I'm a wonderful care giver and I have been in the medical field for 34+ years, I enjoy taking care of patients. I hope to someday returning to school and becoming an RN. I have spent most of my life caring for others because it gives me so much joy to be able to care for clients and give them the security of a compassionate caregiver who loves what she does..

I started caregiving right after I got out of high school. I have always loved it! I have worked different places as a caregiver and have been doing this for about eight yrs. I have worked at assisted livings, home care agencies and private care. I love helping people ! I'm very patient and compassionate with the people I work with. I am a very reliable worker .
