I have training as a CNA/HHA that I obtained in the late 1980's. I continued to do field work for several years before being given and opportunity to work in office at a Home Health Agency. Since then I have continued in the health field at a corporate level and my recent full time job has ended because the owner retired. Beginning in late 2021 I decided to go back into the field to help those in need. I recently finished a job where I drove for an elderly man that had cancer and now I help his wife out as she has no family here. I am a happy and positive person who can ease the worries of someone who does not feel well. I enjoy making people smile and helping them out.
