I'm a talkative friendly & outgoing person. I am passionate about nursing and health care....especially for the elderly! I went to school to be a nursing assistant when I was in my late 40's because straight out of college I got married (32 years now!) and had two daughters. AFTER the youngest one graduated from high school in 2010, I was then able to pursue my real dream of getting certified to be able to care for clients and hopefully make their lives a bit better!

I'm a woman who has son,been working this jobs for so many years, I provided all the necessary care that my special needs deserved [?] with out supervisor for my knowledge and experience working. I do like a long term care wether it's possible.

I am a certified home health care provider. My 22 years experience include taking care of individuals with mental and physical disability in their own homes. I also worked as a Training Specialist in a workshop setting, where we trained people with mental retardation and behavior problems in simple jobs that would generate income for them and keep them occupied. My duties included providing personal care, grooming, bathing, cooking, transportation, medication administration, and monitoring individuals for safety. My joy is derived from making an improvement in people's lives.

I'm friendly, nice and like to help people. I'm a very trustworthy and a passionate person. I also wanted a rewarding job, and caregiving is just that. I enjoy talking to and making people laugh. I was very friendly with all our residents at my previous job. I am proud to have four healthy grandchildren that I adore.

I am a very patient, compassionate, loving, caring person,I am very detail oriented, not afraid to set boundaries, I don't mind going that extra mile to help someone. I have a passion for helping people of all ages, and have been that way my entire life. My mother as well as grandmother were both RN'S. I have been in the health care field on and off since 2004. I am currently in college and working on my Associates Degree in Psychology. I love being able to make a difference in someone's life on a everyday basis, even if it's just making someone smile, I building memories I will cherish for a lifetime, and I learn something different from every individual, and am always learning something new. I am hoping to start up my own cleaning business in the near further.

I chose this path in the medical field from a young age when I realized how much I valued the individuality and the wisdom of my elders, and how much joy it brings me to be able to be a shining light in their darkest days. I plan on caring compassionately for my patients and rendering help to those in need. The interpersonal relationships with the patients/family are the reason I am here. In 2019, I was my father's primary caregiver, and I experienced some unprofessional nursing staff that made me want to be in the medical field even more. I have heard horror stories of unkind, unprofessional, non-caring nurses that are involved with our patients, and it utterly breaks my heart. I'm a firm believer that you lived a valuable life if you positively affected at least 1 person in your lifetime and I want to be rich in experience when my time comes. I view everyone as potential family and will always advocate for the patient with their best interest in mind. There are countless good people in this world that are deserving of so much. I crave to be a part of that experience. It's my calling here on earth and my purpose being a Christian woman. I view myself as being caring, empathetic, compassionate, understanding, medically knowledgeable, and a reliable person. I believe time with nature, is its own medicine and that love can heal. I encourage the patient to be active in their care and maintain a positive outlook. I am detail-oriented, focused, dedicated, and eager to get to know you and the family! I am a full-time student, going back to finish my bachelor's degree in nursing. I have experience with altered mental status patients and do well in deescalating situations involving conflict. I am proud of my many achievements during my studies. I would love to tell you more about myself, my education, and my experience. I am so happy to be a part of this field and your personal team. I can't wait to meet you!

My personality traits I would have to say that I enjoy making people laugh. I'm just a big goof ball. I'm energetic, I have a gentle touch and a warm heart. I got attracted to being a caregiver was because the elders have great stories, it sometimes takes me back in time like I was in their era. I enjoy being a caregiver because I want to help others, I want to learn and grow from them, the elders are so wise. The personal achievement that I'm proud of was the day I passed my CNA State Exam. Nearly almost 5 years and I've loved every minute of it, and I've learned so much

I feel I can relate to some of my clients on a level that is important to me because of my prior experiences with taking care of my mother for 9 years. This is also what attracted me to caregiving and just the fact that I can help people feel better as a person. I enjoy every aspect of caregiving and my heart is totally in it. A personal experience is the things I can learn from them and especially the older ones and their stories.

As a caregiver my number one priority is to put my residents first, I have loved caring for elders since I started my CNA classes in 2019, what I enjoy most about being a caregiver is helping them with their everyday life needs, I came into the caregiving position to help me with the career I wanted and I ended up wanting to choose a career to care for elders.
