Through my experience in the military I became very interested in mental health and physical care. I spent much of my time with young and older individuals that experienced both mentall illness and physical issues. I witnessed families not understanding why there family member is not "normal" like they used to know and witnessed the emotional pain the families pain can cause on the patient. The Need of personal care is not something that is simple, it takes a person who understands the needs emotionally and physically but most of all involves trust between the patient and there family. If you are looking for someone to truely invest time and care in your family member and update the family daily on the patients condition then I believe I would be a great candidate. I'm married and have 2 beautiful boys. I'm currently in school and will graduate next year.
