About Sandra

E X P E R I E N C E It seems I've been a Caregiver all my life beginning in my early 20's as a Nurses Aide. At 60 I've since added to my 'life resume', caring for my elderly parents, a younger brother diagnosed with Progressive Multiple Sclerosis and currently two patients with various health issues. It's my opinion that allowing whomever I'm caring for the ability to keep their dignity and normal lifestyle, is paramount. I honestly don't consider myself a Caregiver so much as an assistant or helper to my patient. Equally important is minimizing if not erasing any worries their family may have knowing they're loved one is safe and properly taken care of. Fulfilling these goals, at least for myself, are what makes doing the job all worth while. I've experienced being 'on the other end' and am all too aware of how mentally and physically draining it can be to either not have help, or not have the right kind of help.
