About Mercedes

I'm very friendly and caring, I have done in home care for about 3 years total and then worked as a medical assistant since 2018. I'm currently going to school for respiratory therapy I have 1.5 years left this is why I choose to go back to home care as the schedule for school doesn't allow me to work a normal 9-5 but this also allows me to get back to doing what I love the one on one care with a client.

I have a calm kind personality, and have great time management skills. I helped with the care of my aging father and realized there was a real need for people like him. I enjoy being around people, playing cards was one of my dads favorite activities and it was so much fun! My best achievement so far has been raising my 5 children into kind successful adults.

I've been a LPN since I was 18. I started in NY then Ohio and now here in Pa. I love the elderly and most of my career has been caring for them! I'm most proud of my family!
