Natural born caregiver - November 2011
At 81-years-old, Edna Leamer has been a caregiver since the age of 14, when her mother died. As the oldest of five of children, born in Billings Mont., she naturally took on the maternal role. She is still acting as a nurse at the Pioneer Home today and finds that her age can be a real advantage when it comes to relating to the residents and gaining their trust.
