About Patricia

I enjoy helping the elderly stay in their homes and independent as long as possible. After being there for a while or in one case a week. They know Icare and open up & tell me how they feel. Then together, set up a care plan for them with the Dr, nurse, family member. Since 2002, I have had personal achievements with each of my clients. I find listening to them and asking questions I am able to build that trust they need.I enjoy arts and crafts. I like to crochet blankets / throws.

I have worked as a caregiver in homes, nursing homes and hospice care for over 20+ years. I love helping people and treating people as I would want someone to treat my own loved ones. I understand that getting old is also a form of losing your Independence. I like to let the patients do as much as they can and help them where I am needed.

Hello my name is Angelica I have been a caregiver for 15+ years I took care of my father he passed away last year at the age of 89. Every day I woke up ready to take care of him I love being his caregiver it was stressful at times just like with any other job but knowing every day I made a difference in his life brought me so much happiness I did everything for my dad to keep them as comfortable as possible I bathed him fed him took care of his medication I would motivate him to get out of bed and start his day to walk exercise we would watch TV shows we would play around with our dogs and we love listening to music together. After my father passed away I found other people to take care of my responsibilities are very similar to what I would do with my dad I love doing what I do.
