About Christine

I have been in the field of Nursing for more than twenty years, caring for all kinds of people, from babies & young children to seniors. Most of my work as a Nurse has been in Home Health and Hospice Care, as well as Alternative Medicine. I love my work and deeply enjoy being of service to others. I am a deeply spiritual person, without being overly religious, and I strive to see the goodness and divinity within each person that I meet. I have had experience in all areas of Nursing, and I am very proficient with my clinical skills. In addition to being a Registered Nurse, I was trained as a Medical Social Worker, and this training has been of great value as I work with people who are ill and facing difficult challenges and I work with the family members as well. I am very aware of the difficulties and challenges that families face when a loved one is ill and disabled, and I make myself available to the those family members as well as the patient, knowing that they are also in need of support and care. I see every day as a special gift, and every moment as an opportunity to serve, to love and to experience the joy and sweetness of this gift we call life, even when life is full of challenges and pain.

Caregiving is something that I should've started to do a long time ago. I believe being a caregiver is a natural talent for me. I love spending time with people of all ages. I really enjoy looking after my sister's children and I also find great joy in spending time with my grandparents. Making them happy and comfortable is rewarding. I like being the person that can help with daily activities, it is a fulfilling position. I'm thankful that I'm capable and compassionate about caregiving, I think it's a blessing to be a blessing.
