This experience has equipped me with the necessary skills to address a wide range of needs and challenges that individuals may face. Whether it is assisting with daily activities, administering medication, or providing emotional support, I am dedicated to ensuring the highest quality of care for my clients. In addition to my practical experience, I have also pursued formal education and training in EMT and Firefighter. I hold a certification in caregiving techniques and have completed courses in first aid and CPR. This knowledge allows me to respond effectively to emergencies and provide immediate assistance when needed. Furthermore, I am well-versed in the principles of professional ethics and confidentiality. I understand the importance of respecting the privacy and dignity of those I care for, and I am committed to maintaining their trust and confidentiality at all times..

Since I was a young girl, whether it be for my loved ones or the underprivileged, I have always had an innate concern for those in need. My inherent compassion for the livelihood challenges of others has developmentally led me to pursue an educational life-long career as a guidance counselor and health-care provider. What I have learned in my experience, when caring for any individual, is that each person's needs are distinct and should not be identified as like any other individual. When an individual is challenged in any capacity, demonstrating you care in getting to know them as a person, their strengths and limitations with personable kindness, compassion, and patience, can make all the difference to the individual and the family members who depend on you as an extension of themselves. Sometimes a simple smile can make a person feel more relaxed and willing to work with you as a caregiver to aid them with their inability of managing their own lives on their own. As a professional counselor and caregiver, what gratifies me the most about helping an individual is being a part of improving their quality of life for their overall well-being; mind, body, and spirit
