The traits that best describe me are caring and sensitive to meet the needs of the elderly. I have been assisting my father for over 10 years with house cleaning, doctor's appointments and wound care after two major surgeries. I have also helped my in-laws for the past three years with house cleaning. What attracts me most is the satisfaction I receive knowing they are so appreciative and enjoy the time visiting together. Cooking and spending time with them would be what I enjoy the most. An achievement I am proud of is raising three children and caring for my father after the loss of my mom in 2007.
