About Ashley

I decided at the age of 12 that I wanted to be a caretaker. My father was bedridden due to being a triple amputee, on dialysis and a diabetic. I was the only child still at home and my mother worked two jobs to make ends meet. For 2 years I was my responsibility to help him with his every move when I got out of school every day. He thought me that a person's pride keeps them from asking for help. I now go out of my way to show people it s perfectly normal to ask for help and very important to accept the help. I treat everyone as if they are my family because I want people to treat my family with the same respect.

Hello my name is joy I have been in the medical field since I was in my early teens as a candy striper from there I went on to be a CNA when I was old enough and during that time of being a CNA for many years I also did In-Home Care and then at that point I started thinking about going back to school I went back to school got my medical assistant diploma I am CPR basic life support certified have been for many many years. In-Home Care came very personal to me when I lost my mother back in 2010 I was her so care provider and then losing my dad in 2013 I was his sole care provider doing everything for both of my parents. I worked for a Home Heath Agency for several years but did not like the way it was ran, due to its lack of professionalism, decided to try a different route. What drives me is I want to make sure that other families parents sisters brothers children are taken care of as I would have wanted somebody to do with my parents if I were unable to do s. I am looking forward to working with you if you feel free that I fit your expectations please fill free and l give me a call.
