About Vickie

I am a care giver naturally. I love helping others. I took care of my parents before they passed my Dad had cancer and wanted to stay home until he passed and I helped him through his journey. Feeding changing his bed administering pain meds and checking vitals. My Mom had a stroke several years later and kelp her at home for 5 years. I trained as a CNA but because of personal reasons was unable to finish . I can take vital signs, bath,assist to bathroom cook clean anything necessary to help a loved one stay at home and be as comfortable as possible. Even though my last job didn't envole complete care to an individual I did assist them several them times over my 20 years when they were sick. I've raised 3 children 3 grandchildren. I'm married to a wonderful caring husband. It's unfortunate in this time of my life because of covid I am now having to seek employment because my employer is down sizing . I look forward to meeting my next family to help and take care of their needs . I love to serve others. I choose to look up not down when things take a crazy turn. Looking forward to what lies ahead.
