About MARCUS DEVON

1.I am a very empathetic/punctual and I have a great respect towards the families needs in regards to care for their loved ones . Also I facilitate care on a very high level to ensure the clients have a safe, joyful, and productive life in their homes. 2. I decided to become a caregiver prior to being discharged from military. During that time my mom had several strokes which lead her to be in an institution. I mysteriously wanted to learn how to better assist my mom so I took a course back in 1993 and was certified. Since that time I felt a personal love to want to assist people that cannot fully help themselves. 3. I enjoy most about being a caregiver is being able to give the client as well as the family a sense of piece when providing care! 4. My personal achievement as a caregiver is being that caregiver that will always go the extra distance to make sure the care is always above average and the client is ALWAYS safe!
