Shelly has been working in the healthcare field since 2005, and has been with BEHHC since its beginning. After caring for her significant other who developed ALS, it sparked an interest in caring for people that has never subsided. Through that experience Shelly learned various ways to communicate with others and found out how innovative she can be. Since, Shelly has worked in home care settings and has taken formal training to further learn and develop her skills and keep current ‘with the times’. Her motto in life and in caring for others is to ‘treat others as you would want to be treated’. She feels that she learns so much from her clients and finds being in the home care setting very rewarding and she truly enjoys what she does. Outside of working, Shelly enjoys gardening, boating, being with family, traveling, and sewing.
