About Ilyanna

Hi, I'm Ilyanna I'm currently in school to become a CNA but I've previously worked at UAB Hospital on a surgical unit. Helping Patients with Dementia, Cancer, Kidney Disease, Liver Disease or even some patients just needed help with simple activities like getting to the restroom and helping with pain management. I've also worked as a caregiver it. I started off helping take care of my Grandmother with Dementia and then transitioned to helping her while she was on hospice. I have a passion for my job and hope to one day start my own Caregiving business. I know it's not always about taking care of someone! Sometimes we just need company! Someone to talk to or just spend the day with.
