I am extremely passionate about helping anyone that needs my help. I am CPR and First Aide Certified. I have a CNA Certification, Home Health Certification, A Personal Care Certification. I have extensive experience working with behavioral and intellectual disabled patients. I worked in friends Hospital for 8 years allowing me to become AMAP certified for medication administration. I also have a B. S degree in Human Services. I choose to be a caregiver because I know I can make a huge difference in a person's life. I love all animals with the exception of snake and spiders, (they creep me out). I have no problem with cooking or cleaning. I love laughing, music, Gardening, art, crafting, Dominoes, Card games and walks. By providing companionship and emotional support caregiving makes me feel fulfilled. Please feel free to reach out should I be a fit, I am no stranger to hard-work.
