About Cheryl

I have been in the medical field for 35 years. I started out taking care of the aging when I was in high school as a certified nurses assistant. I worked in skilled and non skilled nursing homes and worked as a private caregiver. I joined the Navy when I was 17 and served as a Hospital/Combat Corpsman for 20 honorable years. During that time I worked in various clinics on hospital wards was an EMT and did independent duty working alone without a physician. After retiring honorably I worked for local vocational schools in the DFW area as a Medical Assistant instructor and then was promoted to Program Director. I also managed an internal medicine and rheumatology office for Texas Health Resources. I have been a substitute teacher for Keller ISD and Saginaw-Eagle Mountain ISD. Throughout the years I have taken care of various people with various medical conditions. I have a superior work ethic, am punctual, reliable and pride myself on my integrity. I have an active secret clearance, have been finger printed with the state of Texas and Federally and have local references I can provide. I am a non smoker, and a Christian woman who believes in giving the best care to my patients because they truly do deserve nothing but the best.

empathy and compassion. working with people in a home care setting is essential that a caregiver feels the desire to want to help. by showing both empathy and compassion. I as a caregiver will let the patient know that I care about the person and want to do what I can to help my patient. Patience is the key to being a great caregiver.
