About Raven

I decided to become a caregiver mainly from a family incident that occurred a few years ago, seeing how the caregiver helped my family member and got him back to where he needed to be influenced me on so many levels. The greatest thing about being a caregiver in my opinion is just the bond that you create with your clients, some of these individuals don't have any close family nearby; therefore, you're the only person they see on a daily basis. Just to know I make an impact on their lives really motivates and bring me joy.
