About Susan

I am very professional; compassionate; calm and have a good sense of humor! I have worked in a medically related field; taught school and particularly enjoyed working with adult students in writing memoirs. Editing and sharing memoirs turned my attention toward working with the needs of senior citizens. I discovered wisdom, heroism and the goodness of human achievement through enormous laughter and occasional tears amongst participants in the sharing of their writings. Recently I added certificates in health courses to my resume in essential health care, anatomy, physiology and phlebotomy. While I am personally professional and entertaining, I wanted to bolster my medical knowledge with measurable competencies, CNA courses, and health certifications to assure patient confidence in my care giving..

I have compassion for the Elderly because I had a short time with my grandmother Juanita, she passed away at a very young age. She was an inspiration to me, she was wise and full of love. I want my clients to know that I care for them and they would get the best care. They deserve to be treated well and safe. I love hearing their stories, their wisdom and knowledge.
