About Joseph

My background for the most part began in personal health care, working for an in home support services registry/call list where I worked with disabled clients of all ages and with disabilities ranging from quadriplegic and paraplegic to blind. Some clients had severe mental disabilities while others mildly so. Earlier I worked with children as a special education tech for a school district. These children were living with illnesses such as autism, dyslexia and bipolar disorder, many with physical disabilities as well. I do and love this profession because I feel that my mission in life is to help those who can't help themselves.

I am a very compassionate person and love to help others, so that is why I became an Occupational Therapy Assistant. I love being around the elderly especially. My grandparents have and had a huge impact on my life and I have learned so much from them. I am a great listener, problem solver and I love to chat, bake, cook and go for walks. I have been married for 32 years, we have two grown sons, and now 2 grandsons, which is an unbelievable blessing! I also have some humor and like to joke around, as I had to live with all boys! I'm also a Christian, love to play cards and games and love dogs!

The thing that attracts me most to being a caregiver, is knowing that you have the ability to make someone's life better. I think it is crucial to not only provide cares, but to be caring. I've always been an empathetic, hardworking, kind individual, and I love the idea of using those personal traits to help benefit others.
