Hello! I am a very active and bubbly person that loves a good laugh! I am easy going and more than happy to help with daily living tasks and companionship. I absolutely love being a caregiver! I've met so many wonderful people. I believe that in-home care is one of the most important and rewarding things one can do to help the community. I can only hope that I may help someone stay in their home so that they (and their family) can find comfort in their pets, items, and loved ones. I've always had a good connection with my elders and I think it's is so important to listen to their stories! You might find a good lesson or two![?]

What I believe that makes me a great caregiver is that I love and respect myself, family and friends especially my grandparents. Prior to my grandfather's passing we had an awesome relationship spent a lot of time together with preparing meals, biking and talking and enjoying our time together. I also have a loving and caring grandmother that has survived his passing. I highly love, respect, and honor them spending time with me and I thank God for them being in my life. My passion to care for people stems from my personal experience with family and alongside my friends as well.

E X P E R I E N C E It seems I've been a Caregiver all my life beginning in my early 20's as a Nurses Aide. At 60 I've since added to my 'life resume', caring for my elderly parents, a younger brother diagnosed with Progressive Multiple Sclerosis and currently two patients with various health issues. It's my opinion that allowing whomever I'm caring for the ability to keep their dignity and normal lifestyle, is paramount. I honestly don't consider myself a Caregiver so much as an assistant or helper to my patient. Equally important is minimizing if not erasing any worries their family may have knowing they're loved one is safe and properly taken care of. Fulfilling these goals, at least for myself, are what makes doing the job all worth while. I've experienced being 'on the other end' and am all too aware of how mentally and physically draining it can be to either not have help, or not have the right kind of help.

I am a 45 year old female that loves working with the elderly. I have a lot of patients and understanding. The reason I chose to be a caregiver was due to the bad care my grandmother got. I enjoy listening to the stories they have to tell, and I treat them like they are my own grandparents. I even attended college so I could become educated in different illnesses.

One of the important caregiver qualities that I have to give is compassion. Understanding your patients and treated them with kindness and respect will help get them through the day. I will always be attentive to the need of the patients.
