About Theresa

1. To assist and care for the client as well as the family and to ensure there are individuals who are able to assist in a truly caring way. 2. It's been a passion since my childhood...being able to sow into someone's life with care and love....to provide hope they will be properly cared for. 3. I've been caregiving for over 20+ years...and love every moment of it...and am a proud mom of 3 grown sons...which leads into the next question. 4. I am a mother of 3 grown men ages 27, 29 and 32 yrs old and are so proud of my children! I started nursing school directly from high school but discontinued as I was raising my children. At this time I chose to become a caregiver. I have continued to provide care-services for 20+ years along with having a couple of executive positions with major companies. I always resorted back to the "caregiving arena" because of where my passion is. *** I have worked with several Patients age-ranging from birth to 105yrs of age...with challenges from upto and including Alzheimers/Dimentia, Stroke/Paralysis, Autism, Parkinsons, to mention a few. *** I am familiar with CPR. 5. I have a very flexible/available schedule but would like to have 1 or 2 weekends off per month to spend with family and church!

I am a very loyal, caring, and compassionate person. It gives me great joy to be able to help someone in there time of need. I started my caregiving journey in 2001. I went to CNA school and became a CNA at that time. I worked in a nursing home for 2 years then went to work at a hospital for 5 years. After that I started my journey being a one on one caregiver. And I have helped people in there home for the past 10 years. I enjoy what I am able to do for the patients and there families.
