About Sarah

I love assisting and making others happy, making sure that they have the help they need in order to live a rewarding life. Being a caregiver gives me a sense of accomplishment, and it makes me realize what life is all about. A personal achievement I am proud of is whenever I see a family member of a client, noticing improvements in their family or parent's life, and thank my employer what a great service provider we are. The change I see in our clients because of the services we provide makes me proud. I graduated from the Keller Graduate School of Management with honors. I worked in various capacities and earned good wages, but, I only felt fully fulfilled when I had the opportunity to work part time as a caregiver. I developed and grew to love being a caregiver! Since then, my employers have commended me and as such, I have won several awards for a job well done. I have been commended by both my employers and those we served. I have an MBA with concentration in Human Resources Management, Master of Public Administration with concentration in Healthcare Management, worked as a Financial Counselor, Customer Service Representative, Program Manager, amongst others but being a caregiver makes me fulfilled.

I've worked as a nurse assistant over 16 yrs caring for disabled, elderly, ill, and mentally challenged clients. I have worked in nursing home, hospital, home care, senior facility, respite care, private duty, direct care service, and hospice care, and trained in massage. I like to challenge myself as a caregiver with promoting new work skills. My time is giving care to others, that cannot do for themselves. My achievement is to see my three children succeed in the life that values them. For myself, to be recognized for my work performance, that's giving to each individual that has been cared for, show appreciation. I had several resident tell me that I'm wonderful, and I had a tearful moment. It's a blessing to hear positive thinking from a client. I'm a certified assistant living manager, private caregiver, and studied massage technique . Thank You.
