About Patricia

I have always been a caring person by nature, and I am very patient with people. I enjoy working with those who are in need because it is very rewarding to me to be able to help. A great caregiver will always be considerate of the person's feelings and build a bond, so that the person can feel free to be themselves as if they were with a family member. When my father became older and began to have medical and mental limitations, I moved him into my home and gave him the master suite for several years so that he could have room and privacy using the connected master bathroom. I have also worked with special needs children, who have severe disabilities. I feel confident that I can assist your loved one and give them a great sense of security.

I'm a very patient person and I sympathize with the person in pain, because everything ive going through. I like to work with the elderly because it makes me feel that im not just making money but also that I'm doing something good as a human being. you never stop learning with them. they're full of wisdom. I also have learn and get so much experience working with patients all this years specially with cases of alzhimers and dementia. I worked for Brookdale that is a very good and big home assistant living. I worked in the area of patients with dementia. but i love the experience i had in the past working one to one. i think i can give the best of me to that one person that needs me with him/her. i worked 2 years with a person that was in a lot of pain and I took a good care of him. I stay with him until his last breath. that was the best time I had as a caregiver because we gave each other a lot of our best.
