About Michelle

I started doing healthcare since I graduated high school. I first started as a caregiver and really loved the experience of being able to help somebody who really needs it. I have been doing healthcare for about 4-5 years I love the experience of being able to be apart of something bigger to many people they might just see it as something small but to the person or person's that we are helping to them it's something bigger. I also like being a friend to my patients I love hearing their stories of when they were young and how they came to be. I like learning new things and new people and sometimes we come to learn new cultures. During COVID i have learned that being there for our patients goes beyond a caregiver you start being a part of their family which in the end is such a great feeling knowing that your hard work and dedication really matters.

Caregiver

Mar 2017 - Jan 2018
Prívate Caregiver
I was a private caregiver to a male who had been left paralyzed from his whole right side of his body. I would take him to his therapy session in town and take him to a restaurant if we wanted something different or we would go back home and I would cook something. I also did laundry, light cleaning, made sure all his medication was taken on time & bathed at night. Made sure all trash was taken out before leaving. On occasion if they wanted to go out of town they would tell me ahead of time so I could go as well to help with transport and help with meals etc.

I am an extrovert, always smiling & seldom sit! If I can add a smile to someone's day or make them feel special, then both of us will have a rewarding day! I was a pediatric ophthalmology specialist in Canada; when we were transferred to the USA, I began a food manufacturing company. A friend approached me in 2015 to ask if I would help with their mum who was near vegetative status due to progressing dementia and being alone. Four months later, this beautiful Lady was walking, singing, dancing, and cooking with me - one of the most self-gratifying endeavors of my life. Now living in the beautiful hill country, retirement is not satisfying - I do volunteer at the VA hospital just to see these heroes smile, laugh & have someone to listen to them... and of course plenty of hugs! I would treasure being able to help another person find enjoyment in life. Hence, I am adding my profile here. *Dog lover yet terrified of cats! *COVID vaccine x2 by VA hospital. *Infusion by Peterson Hosp.
