As a professional caregiver for 35 years, and Director of Social Services in a skilled nursing facility for 4 years, I have gained vast knowledge and experience in the area of caregiving.
I have also walked through my own trials and storms in life which I will share with you in my writings as the need presents itself.
I have my B.A. in Psychology, as well as two years of Master’s degree study in Telecommunications.
I am a caring, compassionate woman whose desire is to offer support and assistance for individuals and family members who are caregivers.
