About Kimberly

I became a caregiver, because I am a passionate person, I believe that the elderly should be treated with respect, and compassion. I like being a care giver, I'm able to learn about my clients, their habits, their lives, learning how they may have struggled thur their time, and managed to achieve thur harder times, when the world was different from now. My personal achievements are that I continue to keep educating myself in different fields of the Medical Profession, I have graduated school as a Medical Assistant, Certified Nursing Assistant, and I just graduated school again, as a Medical Massage Therapist. I'm dependable, honest, loyal, and very sincere. I respect myself and others. I believe that everyone has a purpose in life. Mine is to help with client during times of being sick/dying, to show compassion, strength, and help my clients, and family members with daily functions.

I love and enjoy being a Caregiver as I care very much for the elderly. I am committed, reliable, and a hard working person, a non-smoker, clean, organized, positive minded and cheerful. I go all the way and put a lot of effort in order to get my clients in a better health condition. I take pride in my work and I like to see them happy and comfortable. I take care of my patients like they are my own parents; with love, compassion, patience, and respect. I've been getting very positive comments on my work from my client's physicians, family members, and friends. I also have great and recent reference that I can send upon request. Thank you!

Im a caregiver because I enjoy helping others, helping others is rewarding to me. Home health is a way for the elderly to continue to live in their home and still feel comfortable in their aging years. I've been doing home health since 1994. I have a background check and CPR. I have my own car.
