Additional Information

I have experience in caring for family members after having major surgeries with lengthy recoveries as well as those who have had to make their unfortunate journey through the hospice/end of life experience. I have a caring touch for those who are suffering and need help and support through physical and emotional strain. I had to learn nurse-like abilities over night to care for the health impaired including ileostomy bag care, urinary catheter and the dressings of his 16 inch stapled incision, while caring for my new born and 19 month old simultaneously.

I know what it means to care for those in need and how to work under energy draining circumstances.
