About Kimberly

I started as a caregiver when I was about 16 years old. My grandmother was very sick at the time and on hospice, I cared for her until she passed. After she passed, I started working in nursing homes and group homes as well as home care. My favorite so far has been home care, I love the 1 on 1 attention and care you can give. There is no rush and seems much less stressful to have a good experience with your caregiver. Some things i enjoy about being a caregiver is spending time with my clients and helping them in their everyday needs. I also enjoy the stories they tell :). A personal achievement I am very proud of, I attended Nursing school and had high honors all of my semesters with a GPA of 3.9. I enjoy spending time with my 9 month old daughter and husband. I also enjoy gardening, scrap booking and being outside in the summertime. :)

I have worked with mainly elderly patients in ophthalmology for 32 years. I have become very close to to alot of my patients. I became close friends with an elderly neighbor who had no family in this country. I took her to her doctor appointments and was with her when she passed away. I am still very close to some of the patients who I worked with. I have helped with my mother's care when I have visited her in Florida where she lives with my sister. She requires help walking and also showering. She and I love to play cards! I am also a CASA volunteer.
