Experience: 10 yrs
I became a certified medical assistant in early 1990. Worked for doctors in cardiology for over 10 yrs. Became a home health aide in 2020 and worked with patients with special needs like MS and Dementia. My strong points are definitely my compassion and the joy I get from helping others. I'm easy to get along with and very willing to learn from the family what is best for their loved one. I'm always willing to help out when I possibly can.
Joanna has been taking care of my wife Maria for 2 1/2 years. She takes excellent care of my wife who has MS and is in a wheelchair. When Joanna is here she cares for my wife like a 100% professional. My wife looks forward to Joanna coming to help her. Joanna also does the cooking for my wife and the cleaning. There’s nothing Joanna would not do to help Maria, she showers her and transfers her all day, and always tends to all her needs all day long.
