I am an honest, trustworthy, punctual, patient, outgoing and a dependable person who has true Christian standards when it comes to how I take care of people. I'm detail oriented and believe in the safety and positive wellbeing of those that I care for. I became a caregiver because after assisting my mom with my father who succumbed to Alzheimer's & cancer and assisted my sister -in- law with my brother who succumbed to cancer, I knew from helping my family that I could help other families in need. I enjoy being their companion and making them smile when they are having a difficult day. I sing to those I take care of sometimes. My personal achievement that I am proud of honestly is that I feel I helped to keep one of my clients alive a whole year longer because based on my observation (I cared for her for 3 years) I suggested that the medication shouldn't be given unless it was necessary vs. 3 or 4 times a day and the family listened and that made us all happy.
