About BARBARA

As is most people I started caring for my grandmother in 2001. And then I went to IHSS in Marin County started working for them. I've had up to six patients at a time. I love the different personalities of the people that I meet I love to hear their stories when I meet them I meet their families and it's just a makes me feel good. I have worked with a few dementia patients and I really enjoyed working with them and learning from them.

I'm a great caregiver because I love my job and helping people. I was attracted to being a caretaker after taking care of my mother for ten years who had cancer. My favorite part of my job is being a companion. I have often felt like a family member to my clients. A personal achievement that I am always proud of is when my client improves because of my positive attitude and the exercises we do or day trips. I also make an excellent cup of tea.
