Summary

For 20 years I was a homemaker and a homeschool mother of 8. During those 20 years of homemaking I have helped a friend's cleaning business (Detail and regular cleaning for home and businesses) and my parents lawn care business (helping with bookkeeping and out in the field). I also did Hospice care for a friend for a year and my grandfather for three months. From a very young age I have been a caregiver to young and old. I am a healthcare professional with proven ability to deliver exceptional patient care and support to medical teams. Committed to maintaining high standards and achieving results, while adapting to changing needs and collaborating effectively with colleagues. Known for strong organizational skills and reliable performance in demanding environments.
