About Paula

Every aspect of my life is focused on caring for the elderly. My full time job with Adult Protective Service as a Human Service Technician, I have seen the elderly in abusive situations whether it be physical or mental. My job allows me to come in and assist elderly individuals with issues such as Medicare, Medicaid and or Social Security issues. I transport them to doctor's appointments. In addition I assist with ADL's. I assist with paying bills, purchasing groceries and medications. More importantly I always have time to just talk when needed. I have worked part time with various home health care agencies that assist elderly adults with ADL's. My hope is to assist the elderly without taking away all of their independence.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I truly do care for people. I believe that there is nothing more rewarding that being able to help some one in need. My prayer is that when I'm in need that someone will also help me the way that I am able and willing to help others.
