About Shannon

I became a caregiver because I grew up going to the nursing homes that my mother worked at and I loved it! It just seemed the natural choice for me. It give me a great sense of pride to be able to improve the quality of life for my clients. I am proud of my educational achievements as well as all of the knowledge that I've obtained through experience. I am confident in my abilities to provide the best care for my clients. I am married with 3 children. I have been working in healthcare for the majority of the last 20 years. I have extensive education & experience with caring for the elderly in their home. I have provided care for those that simply need a companion to those that require complicated medical or hospice care.
