Hello. My name is Deborah Pokoo and I am 55 years old. I am a caregiver because I love helping people especially the elderly. I have been in this business for over 19 years.I am also. Dialysis Tech and a phlebotomist, so I do have a very good experience and also have a lot of references that can vouch on my behalf. I have a very bubbly personality lots of positive energy, I smile a lot or laugh a lot. What attracted me to be caregiver is because I genuinely care about people and felt sorry for the elderly because they looked helpless and when they can not get around.what I enjoy mostly about a caregiver is making someone happy.My personal archivement is being able to take care of a lady who was in her nineties and now she is l06 almost 107 and still alive.
