I started my career in a long-term care facility and discovered that my interest in healthcare was most specifically focused on geriatric and developmentally disabled people. My position in restorative therapies worked to return qualified nursing home patients to their homes. Over time it became clear to me that I wanted to interact with those people who were able to return to their homes but still needed assistance. An In-Home Care career was the perfect fit.

At Caregivers I look for opportunities to grow our business, as well as, ways to better serve our clients and employees. In a sense what I really do is relationship building and serve as a liaison. I derive satisfaction from my position knowing that we are creating atmospheres that will allow our clients to remain home and independent as long as possible.
