About Maria

I became a caregiver because I want to be able to share my abilities with patients, to make them feel safe and comfortable. I attended nursing school to further my knowledge on how to care for my patients. I cared for my mother when she was sick and I seek to care for my patients the same way I cared for her. I want to not only be a nurse but a companion and the person they can trust to care for them. I proud to have two years of experience and have had good relationships with my past patients. To be a caregiver to me is to be someone my patients confide in to assist them in any task they wish to accomplish.

    It is a profession that found me. It started with a next door neighbor I had once. She was an elderly lady and needed help with small things in the beginning and then gradually our relationship grew to the point where I was completely taking care of her and I enjoyed her company so much it didn't seem like a job to me. I fell in love with being a caregiver and the rest is history. My personal achievement would be going back to school and graduating at the top of my class. It's never too late to reinvent yourself. I have since went on to work at a senior living community and have had a lot of fun working there. I recently received my CNA license.

    Certified Medical Assistant and I love working with elderly of all ages because to me it's like spending time with my grandma and grandpa. I am very responsible, honest, and reliable and can multitask. I have worked with elderlys my whole life and volunteered at senior centers and homes. As a hobby i do many different recreational activities and field trips with all seniors. I have been working with CareLinx 5+ years and Respite Care for 5+ years as a Care Provider for a year with Bakerfield PACE and also worked with Adults with Autism. I am up to any challenge that has to do with the health and major problems of any elderly to better their life style and living situation. I am bilingual in Spanish and I manage to take great care of any senior involving any task. I am always up for anything and love to make people happy and smile.
