I worked with agencies who assist individuals with special needs for over 24 years. I graduated in 2017 as a Surgical Technologist and work at a local surgery center. I love my job, but I miss the personal interaction and hands on care. My 24+ years were in a group home setting with individuals ranging in age from 17-75. I worked in a house specifically for boys with autism and hearing impairments for 2 years. I spent 10 years in homes where physical behaviors were a severe problem. The rest of the homes were varied degrees and types of special needs. I cannot imagine there is too much I have not encountered or experienced. There is nothing that I feel uncomfortable doing. I was certified to pass medication and in SCIP (which I could still do with my eyes closed). I am currently certified in CPR and Basic Life Support. Although I chose to further my education in the medical field, I miss this work. I would love the opportunity to care for your loved one

    Suzette is someone who is very detailed and invested in those that she cares for. She is a team player and one who is dependable and full of positive energy that lights up a room. She is warm hearted and caring, innovative and all around a joy to have on any team that she works with.
