About Denise

After working as certified professional Secretary and Administrative Assistant for over 20 years in Jamaica, I came to the US and started working as a caregiver. I started working private duty nursing over 20 years now. My first assignment was quite an experience but there and then I realized that my calling was in helping the sick to recover, and those that are declining in their health and their independence to help in maintaining such. To say I have a passion in caring for my senior 'babies', is an understatement. As I care for my patients, and listen to their life's experiences, sharing, humouring, meeting their daily needs, at the end of the day I reap the benefit of an intrinsic reward seeing the smile on their face and they retire at the end of the day looking forward to another. I am very honest and trustworthy, reliable, efficient,compassionate, empathetic and sympathetic towards my patients and have a great sense of humour. God bless them, I love them. I also studied an is presently a medical assistant, love my job, love people and if I may say so myself, I am very good at what I do as I consider my endeavour a God-given gift.
