About Shanda

Wellll, I became a caregiver when my great grandmother, couldn't remember me. It hurted my soul, I couldn't understand what was going on with her during that time. I was 16. And, I kept saying why don't you remember me. I learned later on that her brain was deteriorating. So it was two layers I found myself in class room, learning how to take care of the elderly. I've been doing this for over 25 years. I love it. I love helping people and learning from them as well. I'm here to serve and protect the elderly at all cost.
