About Angela

What makes me a great caregiver is. I have a passion for others. I have been in the medical field for over 20+ years I've worked with individuals with disabilities as well as the elderly. What I enjoy most is being able to help someone that can't help them selves. A personal achievement I'm proud of is being with my current employer for 5 years and I'm in my 6th position moving up.
