About Schmone

Why? Because I care, and am blessed to be able to. Here's how it happened: I became a caregiver first when grandma was diagnosed with cancer. Moved in with her for 3 months until she died. (We live in same town.) . That was 6 year's ago. Four years ago we moved my mother-in-law in with us. (She's 78 & was diagnosed in 2005 .) I continue to be the full time caregiver, with an aide who comes several times a week to help with bathing. Yes, I sometimes get pretty stressed, but I'm just thankful I am able to do this for them. I hope the time will never come that I'll have to resort to putting them in a nursing home. . If it was up them the parents would have gone to a nursing home long time ago. Praise the Lord, He has giving me strength to make a difference here!

    I'm a talkative friendly & outgoing person. I am passionate about nursing and health care....especially for the elderly! I went to school to be a nursing assistant when I was in my late 40's because straight out of college I got married (32 years now!) and had two daughters. AFTER the youngest one graduated from high school in 2010, I was then able to pursue my real dream of getting certified to be able to care for clients and hopefully make their lives a bit better!

    Hello 44 years old I have been in the health care field for over 15 years now I love helping the elder and those with disabilities or those that just need companionship. I choose this field because it gives me great comfort knowing I can make someone's day a bit more comfortable and a little easier or even just making one smile. I believe we all will need someone to care for us at some point in life so I treat those the way I'd want to be cared for later in life. I also work with special needs patients and IDD i was a home Coordinator at a group home 3 years i enjoy this as well. Please feel free to ask any questions.
