I have been caring for people since I was 16. Started in a nursing home and empathized with many a patient whom were there because they didn't have someone at home to help them. At that age I was able to walk into any nursing home and be hired, do to my size. After that training I started homecare from families who ask if I would care for their loved ones at home. I found one one care to be more fulfilling and could see results of my own work, just being home relieved depression. Did leave services for marriage and raising 4 children, who are all grown. And now after being back in the game for a year, I help a patient get back on his feet. And my latest hospice patient made it through Christmas, but past before New Year Eve. Now my schedule is clear to help your family thrive.
