About Susan

I became a caregiver to give our Seniors the care that they need to continue a good quality of life in their own surroundings. I have a very optimistic personality. I am a Cowgirl that raises cattle, trains horses and has Barrel Raced for 60 years. I have a degree in accounting, which has put me in the business world. I was lucky enough to have been raised in a Military family, living all around the world. I feel accomplishment when I can change the life of someone.

I became a caregiver because, I like helping and taking care of people. I like to meet the patients and hear about their life and background. I am pride of my achievement of being a single parent and raising my kids up right. I am a quick learner, I am very flexible. I'm looking for a morning shift or an overnight shift. But right now I'm open with my shift. And I am flexible with my pay rate also.

I possess more than thirteen years of progressive experience in the Health Care field. Working with patients and specified seniors may be a difficult task for some but I do not find anything more challenging and enjoyable than making life easier for someone who has gained wisdom but lost control of physical and mental amenities. I have hands on experience in assisting individuals with disabilities and special needs. I have also had great success in developing and maintaining productive relationships with patients and their families to ensure smooth rehabilitation. I am certified in BSL and I will follow all proper procedures in emergency situations.
