As a former P.G.A. Pro, i've worked with all age groups 10 - 80 yrs old, teaching the game of golf. To see a smile after a well strick shot.. priceless ! I started in the caregiving business after my Father had a severe stroke. Assisted in all his rehab. Speech/occupational/physcial/aquatic. Soon after i joined the Visiting Nurses Asso. The best part of the job is getting to know the client and their family and how to best assist their loved one. They show their gratitude with many thanks and smiles for a job well done. I know my clients were happy to see me everytime. Always lots to learn in this field, I've continued educating myself, to give the best care possible.
