Q1: I have provided care for many in a variety of settings, and compassionate care is what I strive for. I take time to learn more about disease processes and take time to get to know/develop a rapport with those I serve. Its hard to accept assistance! I believe in total care- mind, body, soul & spirit, and work to learn about hobbies or things that brought joy, and find ways to revisit those as part of that care. Q2: I suppose I have always been THE caregiver as we grew up, having spent a good deal of time in hospitals, as a child. A way to give back, maybe. Q3: I love being someone who provides a little relief in the day, for families and individuals. I would say that I have been blessed to have some of the most wonderful individuals, they give so much back! They are certainly a treasure box. Q4: I am proud of having raised three children well, and put them on a good path. I am also proud of my most recent achievement-graduating college, alongside full days (and nights!) of work and study. I earned a 3.75 GPA.
