Bcz I have 7year experience with elderly people. I know them very well what they need how they feel happy what culture they belong.
I love helping and working with the elderly
Area is fairly quiet. My neighbors are friendly. I have lived in this mobile home park for the past 21 years, and like my neighborhood. Stores are close. I like the nearby park where I go walking frequently.
