About Shawn

I possess a high level of attention to detail as well as a willingness to do what needs to be done. I always go above and beyond my scope of practice to help my clients achieve the maximum level of independence while acting as a supplement to their abilities. In my opinion, assisting with activities of daily living goes well above and beyond just personal hygiene and meal prep. It means helping the client stay engaged in the community as desired. Getting out and continuing to be active as able. I excel with clients and families that are looking for high quality care as well as compassion and drive to achieve. I like to push for whats possible and work well with a family and care team that is actively involved with day to day on goings and encourages client to maintain maximum health and independence regardless of affliction or disability. I look forward to serving you and your loved one with compassion, dignity, integrity and a high level of professionalism.

I'm a very outgoing and ambitious young woman. I love working work with people and forming new bonds as a caregiver. Helping people has always been something I've been good at which is why I enjoy doing what I do. I am also in the United States Army Reserve. I was taught discipline, organization, leadership, loyalty and most of all how to be a team player which has helped me while working in the medical field.
