About Tracy

Acts of Service.... My personal Love Language. For as long as I can remember, caring and doing for others brought me joy. I spent summers with my grandmother, picking up women in nursing homes, taking them to her beauty shop to have their hair done, then going out for a special lunch or a shopping trip. It was those early memories that impressed upon me a desire to be of service to others. As a high school teacher, every day provided opportunities to serve and provide for students and familes in my community and now that I have retired, I have an opportunty to be of service to those who can no longer help themselves. It is truly an honor to care for those who spent their lives caring for others.

1. What actually makes me a great caregiver is my willingness to serve others and I believe it's my calling. 2. I became a caregiver because, I have great compassion for individuals in need of personal one on one care. 3. Their are several reasons why I like being a caregiver. The first reason is that I am able to be there for individuals that are in need of help. Another reason I enjoy being a caregiver is because, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer and after the cancer she went into remission. Shortly afterwards, she was diagnosed with dementia. Recently she was diagnosed with Parkinson. I eventually had to move her into my home and I realized how self fulfilling and rewarding it is to serve others with sincere humility. I feel that as a caregiver each individuals that I care for should receive the best of care, compassion, and the best quality of care that life has to offer. 4. My most greatest achievement is yet to come because, I'm looking to achieve more tomorrow than I have today. Life is a lifelong learning process and when you think that you have achieved your greatest achievement there is still room left for more improvement.
