About Phyllis

Hi! My name is PJ. I spent my childhood helping my parents take care of my elderly grandparents who had a variety of health issues including Alzheimer's, vision and hearing deficits. Since then I have enrolled in nursing school at SUNY Adirondack and am now in my final semester. I am still not quite sure what I plan to do with my degree but I entered nursing school with the intention of going into home care. I recall the immense effect that homecare workers had on our family while we were taking care of my grandparents and that is what I love about it. There are a lot of aspects of care that are included in home care that I love as someone who enjoys cleaning, and just having conversation.
