About Barbara

You have to have the right mentality to be able to be a caregiver..... Heart, compassion, understanding, and most needed patience!! My husband has Parkinson's Disease and seizures on a daily basis. I have learned a lot from him. I've worked with assisted living and have done Private Sitting for many years with many clients. My greatest accomplishments have been my client with Parkinson's Disease. This was even before we knew my husband had it. I was with him for 4 months before he passed. I even did the post mortem care. My second accomplishment has been working with a quadriplegic and learning from her, how to do an in and out Cath!! I'm a pro now!! I truly enjoy this line of work. I love meeting new people!!

    I am a very calm, generally happy person who enjoys singing while I work. I originally accepted a position as housekeeper at Emeritus of Hattiesburg, but discovered that I had a connection with the residents and really enjoyed working with them, so I transitioned to Care giving. Being able to help someone through a difficult day is very rewarding for me.
