🌼 Meet Amber Metz, Office Assistant at Tandem Healthcare! 🌼
We asked Amber a few questions about what inspires her in caregiving—and her answers warmed our hearts. 💙

What’s one thing that makes you smile at work?
"I love visiting clients and helping them with their daily tasks—but what really makes me smile is when they open up and share stories about raising their kids or childhood memories. One client always greets me with, 'Oh, it’s you again!' and chuckles. I know he’s joking, and it makes me laugh every time."

What inspired you to get into caregiving?
"In my small town, the nursing home was one of the few places to work—and I started there in 2004. What began as a job turned into a calling. It taught me responsibility and the importance of caring for others. Taking care of people is my passion, and this is one way I can live it out every day."

How do you build meaningful connections with clients?
"From the first visit, I try to learn what they expect and how I can make their day better. I ask about their weekend, if they caught the ball game, or what they’re planning for the next holiday. With each visit, the conversations grow and our connection deepens."

How does in-home care support independence?
"Staying at home means staying where you're most comfortable—surrounded by routines, memories, and the things that matter. Whether it’s watering plants, enjoying coffee on the patio, or letting the dog out, our goal is to support those everyday moments safely. We step in to help where needed, so clients can continue living life on their terms."
