About SHIRLEY NEIL

I first got interested in healthcare at the age of 14 by taking care of my late aunt. She was a type 1 diabetic that ultimately lead to skin issues and blindness. She told me Shirley you should be a nurse. It sparked the idea. From that time on I found people in the community that needed a little help to make their daily lives easier or better they would say. Later, I put myself through collage and obtained my Bachelorsrs degree in Nursing. I got a job in the Critical Unit. Unfortunately, COVID hit, overwhelming our unit as well as the rest of the hospital(s). At that time, I put passing my certification test on the backburner because I felt the need to be on the floor doing what I could do to help. I didn't pass my test in time and so I was demoted to a patient care tech. I am still working in the CCU as a PCT. I miss my home healthcare personal job as it allows me to connect and do something for people in my community that need help. I enjoy conversations and proving holistic care. Knowing that I am passionate about making sure my clients are comfortable and happy is rewarding and makes my heart happy. My biggest accomplishment was raising my two children while putting myself through collage as a nurse.

I was raised by my grandparents all the way up till high school. While living with them they instilled countless of values and morales. Which is why upon graduating with my B.S. from Houston Christian Univeristy, I returned home to look after them. Through them and my professional experience i've learned tremendous patience and how to properly address and handle any situation a care giver may experience. I was officially hired as my grandfathers provider through the VA when he reached 100% disability until his passing at 102. I have since worked for two other home care agencies, and have over 2 years of experience professionally. I am also sponsored by Project Arriba, while I complete a 2-year Echocardiography program at EPCC. I can say with confidence I am able to effectively and superbly perform any task as a caregiver and provide exceptional customer service.
