I was an accountant by profession,after taking care of my sister who died of brain tumor and brother who died of cerebral palsy I changed to nursing. For 15 years I've taken care of the sick and elderly,and the fact that I gave them care gave me satisfaction. I have encountered great families down the way learnt so much about caregiving,care is just not a job it is a calling which has given me a new meaning. Proud that wherever I have been I made a difference, and also learnt a great deal on the job. I have taken care of couples too travelling with them to Florida. I have great experiences from families who's loved ones I have taken care of in PA,NY and Martha's Vineyard.
