About Ashton

I am naturally a kind, caring, nurturing, and entertaining individual and that is why I think Nursing works so well for me. I recently completed my Associates of Applied Sciences degree, just one step to getting my BSN. My grandmother has lived with my family my entire life and that's where my nurturing nature started. In college I took care of my aunt 7 days a week until she passed away from ALS, and I loved being the only person she trusted in her most vulnerable hours. This time with her gave me extended experience with patients with very limited mobility or bound to a hospital bed, alternative feeding methods, ventilators, lifts, and plenty of at home physical therapy. I have a leader personality and good time management skills. It's truly a feeling I could never get tired of being called on by someone who absolutely needs my help, and I would love to be a calming constant for your family too!

I have been a caregiver since I was very young. My Daddy had Parkinson's for 30 years and helped to care for him until his death in 1991. In the last 10 years if my Daddy's life we had to help feed him, administer medications, bath him and dress him. Then in 2001 my Mother was diagnosed with dementia and congestive heart failure. In about 5 years the dementia progressed to full blown Alzheimer's with all of the side effects. In the last 3 years she couldn't feed or dress gerself, so, I performed all if these tasks for ger until she passed in 2015. I now help on the weekends take care of my uncle in Greenville, SC . He has Alzheimer's, Diabetes, COPD, Congestive Heart Failure. I administer meds, take blood counts and blood pressure, feed him, clean his house and wash his clothes. I have taken care if 1 terminally ill patient this last year and I sit periodically with a gentleman that has dementia.
