About Derika

I was a caregiver for seven years during High school I started in the home care field taking care of my grandmother that is no longer here and I'm just really passionate about taking care of the elderly as I would take care of my grandparents that's why I stayed in this field for so long because I actually enjoy doing what I do taking care of others

I love to help others!!For 30years it has brought me joy to know that I do something everyday that puts a smile on an individuals face. I'm giving back what was given to me, at sometime or another we all need someone to care for us so its my duty to give back. Raising my kids and finishing school so i could do what i love. I am a leader, and a team player, having thw chance to recruite great help also helped me understand what it was like working in the office and how hard it is at times to get good help for our lives loved ones so as long as I can I will help make it easier for everyone and I will not stand for abuse of any kind to anyone..
