About Mary

The thing that makes me a great Caregiver is : I love caring for people who need my help ! I'm a CNA , and have worked in a Nursing Home , Private Group Homes , and done Private In Home Healthcare for the elderly . I even took care of my own Mother in my home for several years , seeing to her meds , personal hygiene , meals etc... I took care of her until she was almost 88 years old , became extremely ill , was put on Hospice , and she passed away in my home , with me present ! I basically love people , and find caring for those that need the help of a CNA , very rewarding . A little history about me : I was a stay at home Mom for 20+ years , and raised 5 beautiful children . They are all grown now , and very successful ! All my patients loved me because they knew I really cared about them , and their families !

I love helping people and empathetic with them because I've been in their shoes. I was on oxygen 24/7 on level 5 and with a walker for 3 yrs. Since moving to San antonio I can breath better and God is giving me the strength to pay it forward. I have a positive attitude and dedicated to my job. I am willing to travel 1 hour outside San Antonio with possible travel expenses.
