About Patricia

I feel that I am a great caregiver because I have over 15 years of experience and I truly do care about people but I especially enjoy the elderly population. I believe that I became interested in being a caregiver back in the '90's because of my dear grandmother that I miss so very much. I learned a lot from her - she had great wisdom! I have also learned a lot from those that I have cared for and I very much enjoy hearing about their families and life stories. I just love helping people, plain and simple. :)

My favorite part of being a caregiver is developing close relationships with the people I'm assisting. I love getting to know each individual and getting to support them in any way I can. I have been told I'm hardworking, kind, calm, patient, and dependable. I have experience assisting people with a wide range of needs and medical conditions. I'm currently in school (pre-nursing), and I'm looking for part-time caregiving work. Send me a message if you'd like to talk more!

I try to be the best possible caregiver because I believe it is one of the most important jobs there is. I like people and it is a privilege to help them enjoy life as fully as they are able to, especially when it includes helping work toward healthy activity and more inclusion in life and community. I have compassion, patience, dedication, a good sense of humor, am calm in crisis, learn fast and can even help with animal care if needed. (I grew up on a farm.) I'm a pretty good cook. I love books, movies, walking, trying to write stories and listening to people. Achievements I am proud of include raising children, grandmothering, attaining a Bachelor of Arts Degree and being once named Caregiver of the Year. Thank-you for considering me as a caregiver!
