About Mark

Hello! My name is Mark Sheffield. I am 52 years old, a non-smoker, and my religion is Southern Baptist Christianity. Through CareLinx.com I am an independent (or if you prefer a private) home health care giver/provider. I have been doing this line of work for about 2 years time, first through Home Instead (2008-2009) and recently though Visiting Angels (2014-2015, I left this organization this past summer in order to get back to school and renew my Certified Nursing Assistance license). I strongly believe that this line of work takes a special kind of person, one that is willing to WANT to help out those in need, Not only do I feel like I am providing a necessary service, but I get the fulfillment of knowing that I an giving someone help who otherwise would be clearly lost without a dedicated caretaker. Of the various skills with this line of work I specialize in companionship. To me this is one of the most rewarding parts of my job. It allows me to get to know the person and find out some amazing things. My promise is that I will give the people who want to try me out a professional job to the best of my knowledge and skills and help out those who need me for what they need me for. Should concerns arise they WILL be discussed. I charge $12 per hour. For transportation I charge $0.65 per mile.

I am a devout Christian. Caregiving is my passion. I have been a Nurse/Caregiver for 30+ years. I am 8 credits away from an R.N. degree, though not currently enrolled in school. I have contributed to a successful nursing facility through excellent/professional care, referrals and word of mouth. And that, I am proud of! Due to having a burden for people, I am always compelled to help those in need. As a Caregiver, I have always assisted children and elderly, the like. I was a Therapeutic Foster Parent for 8 years, having had the toughest cases to meet me at my doorstep. The challenges brought sweet rewards. I originally became a Caregiver when I assisted my mother with activities of daily living for mentally challenged, teenaged boys. It was so natural for me, that I immediately knew, this was my calling. I do my very best to meet all the needs of each individual, thereby, going above and beyond the call of duty. I have never been in trouble, of any kind. I never have: drink/smoke/profanity/drugs/alcohol/diseases/partying or anything of the such. I am very active in the church. I am very passionate about serving others, and even randomly assist my sister, who has MS, when she visits TX. I have a broad range of experience from MS, ALS, MSA, Cancer Recovery, Autism, Parkinson, and so much more!I've been helping others for 31 years, non-stop! I'm here to help your loved one live AT home, not IN a home! All of these aspects mentioned above, and many more, makes me an awesome Caregiver!
