Carolyn’s Bio

I have been working directly with seniors for about 16 years. I started out in the dietary department in a nursing home and then I moved into the activities department. I wanted to do more for the seniors so I decided to attend a nursing assistant school. I have worked in senior care facilities as well as in-home care. I really enjoy taking care of people. When I see a smile on their face, it really makes my heart smile. I like making a difference in someone's life, helping them so they can live better, healthier, and have a more gratifying life for the remainder of their days.
