About Sandra

When i was in high school i used to do lots of community service at our local Assisted Living in Canadian, Tx. I'd enjoy helping with puzzles, playing dominos, and even just hearing friendly conversations about others around. I'd also help out when the residents would go out enjoy the fresh air and get to go on trips out to see ranches or local stores. I personally have always felt so attached to residents just cause i never really grew up with grandparents and having them around just felt loving. I love being able to grow with them and seeing so much history they love to tell us about. Personally i have learned a lot by growing in different families lives I've learned different situations residents have gone through and how to adapt to them.

I am a caring loving person. I have an even temper very rarely am I upset. Always an up beat person. I am a natural caregiver and easy to get along with people. I was a caregiver full time in the late 90's. for an elderly couple and I done everything I could for them. Caregivers are essential to keep people in their homes as long as possible and give them a better quality of life than being institutionalized. I really enough helping to keep a home a home so the person can be comfortable and proud to be home. The personal achievements I most proud of are graduating from college and getting close to my retirement from State of Texas.
