Homecare has been apart of my life for the last 13 years, which started with taking care of my grandparents. I am a medical assistant (14years, also certified in CPR/FirstAid). I strive to make loved ones feel comfortable and safe in their own home. I take pride in knowing that your loved ones can be at home getting the one on one care that they need and deserve. I am extremely passionate about offering comfort and care. I always say, "there are not enough hours in my day to do what I love doing, which is being flexible, compassionate, trustworthy, and respectful to someone's loved one." Caregiving to me is not considered a job, its my life calling!
