I have chosen my career as a caregiver because I get an enormous amount of satisfaction from helping and caring for others. I have been in the Healthcare field for over ten years and have experienced pretty much every kind of situation plausible in the home health care setting. I am a very empathetic and knowledgeable home care provider and I take great pride in my work.

I am a certified Healer in body work to help relieve pain by massage Swedish & Deep Tissue and bone manipulation adjustments Cranial Sacral/Ortho Bionomy. While I am caring for your elder, I would be like their guardian angel making sure that their needs are met. I'll always be there for them during my working hours.

Under the conditions that we get along and do what is best for the elderly person I'm taking care of. To get to know me just a bit I have raised 4 kids all on my own, I have had 3 careers that I can still work at they just take a lot out of me to do that work on a regular basis.

After taking care of my husband (cancer/dementia Patient) for 2 years as a personal caregiver without any medical background. I've learned hands-on training from all the medical staff that i.e nurses, therapist and caregivers how to give a good medical care,I realize that how important a good care giving should be given to a patient from the medical,emotional and spiritual aspect of caring.With all this experienced that I had as a caregiver and become compassionate about caring. I went to school to acquire more training and knowledge as a medical assistant and I am BSL/CPR certified. Currently, I am an Administrator for a Residential Care for the Elderly.

I became a caregiver because helping others is what I like to do. It feels good and by the end of the day I have a satisfied smile on my face knowing the person helped is safe and happy. What I like about being a caregiver is interacting with clients, hearing their stories from back in the day. It's like learning new history. A personal achievement I'm proud of was being promoted as an assistant manager. Felt good my former manger saw a leader in me and knew I could take over someday. I worked as an assistant manager for 9months then wanted to take school more seriously. I've worked at a disability nursing home for four years. Became a CNA after my first year. I have a lot of experience with mediation passing, meal prep, and active treatment if needed.
