About Patricia

I became a caregiver because I liked working with the elderly. I'm a people person and I enjoyed helping others. My most personal achievement was getting my certification as a nursing assistant. I'm from North Carolina, I'm married with three children and three grandchildren and I moved to Virginia after graduation. I work at the motel for years as a housekeeper. I enjoyed meeting and talking to people from everywhere. I knew that I wanted to do more and I have always had a reverence for the elderly because of their wisdom and that's why I decided to go and get certified so that I can help them in whatever capacity they may need.

There's no better feeling than knowing you or a loved one is safe, comfortable, and happy. I know; I was a primary caregiver for two family members before becoming a Certified Nursing Assistant. Helping others is more than a job to me. It's my calling. With more than a decade of experience in home health care, I understand the importance of being warm, compassionate, patient, understanding, competent, reliable, and punctual. During these difficult times, being Covid 19 safe is paramount, too. I am extremely vigilant about precautions, like mask wearing, frequent hand washing and sanitizing my vehicle. I offer part-time assistance with personal care, medication, light housekeeping, errands, and companionship. I also provide hourly driving services for medical appointments, hair salons, or grocery shopping. My rates are based on hours, location and frequency of visits. I look forward to hearing from you and assisting your needs.
