About bobbie

I have always had a love for our Senior Citizens since I was young, my Grandma worked at Bristol Nursing Home for 34 years, she would take me to pass out treats to the Residents, from then on I knew I would work with them. It is the best feeling to know that you are helping someone have a better quality of life even if it is just with you presence or helping them shower or with a meal or simply having a chat with them, after all its much better to give than to recieve.

Worked with a Stroke Victim for the past 5 years, I have also worked with many Dementia/Alzheimer's patients some have been anxious with Sundowners while some have been very quite, I worked at The Bristol Nursing home while getting my CNA certification then went on to our local hospital before starting private care, I enjoy the private setting as I feel we are more able to help the Patients have a better quality of life.

The reason I became a Caregiver, is that I love to help elders and to see them happy. It gives me joy to see them Smile and Laugh. I like being a Caregiver because, alot of elders have family that is always busy, or has things to do and are not able to be at home. One personal achievement I am proud of, is that I helped my neighbors sister when she had her husband in hospice. I felt good helping her in her times of need. I am a very musical person, I am outgoing and fun, I love to laugh, I love to joke. I have an important role in church settings, such as the youth group and church every sunday.
