About Retha

I started out working in a big retirement home in redmond when i was, 22 loved it but after becoming preganet i chose to take,a couple years off for my daughter. Later i started back taking care of my grandmother. And thats, where my passion for helping elders kicked in. I found a pleasure in helping them. It makes this feel less like a job and more like a day out. I like, working more in smaller places that way i can dedicate my time to one.

First I have been doing this for eight years as I said before I have worked in the Adult family home wish you know you have to do everything breakfast lunch and dinner shower grooming dress and also assistant living and also hospice center. I know for sure what I wanted to do in life taking care of babies are adults no I'm working at a space Center wish I love my job so much. Working at adult family home you have to be patient and re-approach be gentle and kind also the assistant living it's the same thing you just got a re-approach them be gentle be patient as I always say is the little things that counts and matters I'm not perfect everyone to make mistakes but I try my best to learn from them and you're never too old to learn more I remember I was at work one One of my patient was laying down and they have a visitor and I was trying to feed him something he turned to me and said I appreciate this so much because he was not taking anything before and look he is taking a few bites that made me feel so good so I feel like I'm doing something.
