About Gayle

Experience: 20 yrs

COVID-19 vaccinated

I'd describe my personality as compassionate, helpful and reliable. I like caring for seniors because they deserve to be cared for. I enjoy being around them and hearing their stories, and helping them find joy and pleasure in life. I'm looking for a job that enables me to help people be more independent in their environment and allows me to give people opportunities to enjoy activities. I started caring for seniors when I started graduate school in speech language pathology over 35 years ago. In my spare time, I like to read, garden, take walks, listen to music and cook. One thing you should know about me is I am reliable and caring and I have a lot of background working with people of all abilities. I am patient and go the extra mile to make sure people feel comfortable. My skills include good communication skills with people. I'm a good listener. My skills also include patience and helping people to adapt to activities in their environment.
