About Shirley

I'm a compassionate and understanding person. I like making a difference and making clients more comfortable. Improving their condition and being there for them during their time of need is important to me. I'm very thorough and I do the best job possible. I'm always complimented on my work and I have received Employee of the Month 2 times and employee of the year. I'm a natural caregiver and always wanted to be a nurse.
