About Shonda
Experience: 10 yrs
COVID-19 vaccinated
I have loved the elderly and working with them since I was about 13. My grandfather was in the nursing home and that is what got me started. I would see him and then go off with one of the nurses to help her with all the other patients. At 18 I went and got my CNA certification and went back to the nursing home he was at and worked. I realized after about 8 yrs that I couldn't help them all there and tried to do home care on my own for a while. Then went and tried the nursing home again and once again realized that I couldn't help all of them and that to a lot of them they were just a number and a paycheck. They didn't have a name or anything and so I decided to start doing home care. I love working with the elderly. I have dealt with everything from Alzheimer dementia to paraplegic to walking and stability to heart and lung issues and just about everything in between. I believe if it wasn't for the elderly we wouldn't be here. They are how we got here.

Shonda, is a Wonderful caregiver , she is caring , has patience that never runs out. She took care of my Great Grandmother until she passed away . Shonda , is more then a caregiver , she is a Great Friend, who understands what you and your Family are going through. My Family was so Blessed to have her take care of Granny !! We had several , that didn't work out . She came in didn't have to be told what to do she just did what she seen needed to be done . She is the best . Sincerely The M.
