Caring for seniors and enriching their lives brings great joy to my heart. With an educational background in physical therapy and years of direct experience with seniors, I understand the key to aging gracefully. It’s not rocket science, just basic common sense. Over many years, I have developed an innovative program for promoting graceful aging, independence, and dignity for seniors. The focus is a holistic whole person approach for facilitating physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being. Along with providing a comprehensive wellness program, patient care advocacy, and other specialized services, I believe in making life fun with a wide variety of meaningful programs and events. George Bernard Shaw once wrote, "We don't stop playing because we grow old, we grow old because we stop playing." Many programs and special events I organized for retirement communities have appeared in the News and Observer, Herald Sun, Apex Herald, and other newspapers. Two were covered by WTVD ABC news 11.

Thank you for taking the time to review my profile. I am a patient, gentle and caring caregiver who is reliable and dedicated to giving the best possible care to my clients and their families. Helping other's has always been a passion of mine but I knew I wanted to be a caregiver after losing my Grandfather to stage 4 lung cancer. Unfortunately for my family the caregivers assigned to my grandfather's care (via his insurance) were unpleasant and far from professional. I know firsthand how important it is to find someone who is compassionate, professional and trustworthy; I take pride in being that person. The most rewarding part of my job as a caregiver is being an alternative to traditional institutionalized care allowing clients to remain safely in the comfort of their own homes. My services are designed to meet the individual needs of each client while offering the families peace of mind and respite. If your looking for someone who is loving, trustworthy and reliable then look no further!!!

I became a caregiver to help others, as I have always possessed an innate desire to do just that. Since elders can't always communicate themselves, I felt a compelling need to do this for them in the best way I knew possible. Naturally, I enjoy that rewarding feeling you get from being a Caregiver but it goes deeper than that. Addressing a problem (emotionally or medically) by noticing that something just isn't right or \\\\\\"off' and rectifying it is even more gratifying! I am proud that I was able to attend a private school in NC, and become a Medical Assistant. It definitely expanded my horizons, and \\\\\\"opened new doors\\\\\\" for me. Through obtaining a Medical Assistant diploma, I have gained a world of experience through employment in doctor offices. I can now say I am both a Medical Assistant and certified Nursing Assistant. Although I enjoyed working as a Medical Assistant for several years, I missed the comaradery of conversing and interacting with the senior population. Given the opportunity to fulfill this passion has enabled me to feel the utmost gratification. As Caregiver, I pledge that I will give 100% to all clients promoting compassion, kindness, and being as empathatic as possible.
