About Shanda

I became a caregiver because of my enormous amount of respect for my elders. It warms my heart to know that I am helping them and making life easier in their last years. I have over 10 years experience caring for seniors with Alzheimer's and dementia. There is no greater gift, than the honor of caring for my elders.

Hi, my name is Martha. I became a care giver because I am a caring, compassionate, and trustworthy individual with about 8 years of experience taking care of people in health care facilities or seniors in the comfort of their homes. I do enjoy caring for seniors because I do derive some satisfaction when I help elderly people feel loved, cared for and valued. I strongly believe that their lives should not be put on hold or or made feel undignified as a result of their age or any health challenge they may be experiencing. In doing my job effectively and wholeheartedly, I promote and encourage self worth, maintaining dignity, such that every client I work with, feels loved, cared for and appreciated as a valuable member of the community.
