I first became a caregiver in 1989, taking care of my foster grandmother. I was with her until her last breath in 1992. From there I took care of my son who was terminally ill with brain cancer. He passed in Nov. of 1993. I started working Home Health as an attendant in 2001 with Oxford in Joplin and then with Independent Living. I moved to another state and worked as Dietary Manager for an Assisted Living facility. My dad became ill in 2009 so moved back to Joplin to care for him and went to work for Independent Living Center from 2010- 2014. I worked taking care of my father fulltime from 2015- 2017 when he passed. I am a go getter done gal who loves working with the elderly or any age needed. I have not worked since Sept of 2017 when Rheumatoid Arthritis took control of me. I would love to work part time preferring the afternoons and or evenings. Mornings are hard for me until medicine kicks in and movement begins.(humor) I am able to do most tasks except heavy lifting, and tight gripping. I love working and miss it so but physical labor all day is impossible for me I am sad to say. Would love to prove that I can carry on with meal prep, household duties, bathing, and numerous other tasks. I am very personable, and compassionate.

My previous job was caring for patients in the hospital as a catering associate from 6:30am-7:30pm delivering breakfast, lunch and dinner , I did the most of what I could for the patients. I've dealt with many types of patients. Patients withdrawing from alcoholism/ drugs. Patient's whom were diabetic/cardiact. Patients going into surgery and coming out of surgery. Patients whom were bariatric and feeders. I had to make sure they were getting the diets they needed to be healthier due to their health conditions. My patients were whom made me want to wake up in the morning and go to work. They made me happy as much as I made them happy. I was grateful to have been there for them through the toughest times in life. It was my duty to make sure they got what they needed to passthrough that process in life. My patients were always happy to know I was there to take care of them. They warmed my heart everytime I walked in and out of thier rooms. My smile is what makes them smile.
