About Terrie

I am very outgoing and always have a smile on my face. I have been a caregiver for 8 years. Although I loved what I did working in the kitchen at the hospital, it didn't bring me as much joy as caring for the elderly. I must say working at NMRC is very inspirational; not only does it open my eyes to the world, but it gave me the opportunity to help those who can't help themselves. Being a caregiver is such an honor. It's all about putting away your needs to assist others. Knowing that a smile on your face can bring joy and happiness to someone else is amazing to me. The moment when you can reflect back and see how you have helped someone is what caregiving is all about.

Hello!! I'm 28 years old. I have 3 kids that I adore. My heart is within my job. I've been a caregiver for 12 years. When I was 16 my cousins and myself learned how to take care of our I'll grandmother. Our parents didn't put her into a home so we had to learn everything from the bottom. She I graduated from school I went directly into home health. It's a honor to be able to help others take care of their loved ones just like my family and I did for our love one.
