About Rachel

I became a caregiver because I wanted to know how to take care of my ailing grandfather. In 2002 I had applied and got into the CNA program at Sun bridge Care facility in Watsonville, CA. I helped my grandmother with my grandpa until he passed than I started working with Sun Bridge in 2003 for a few years. I like to talk, and love to listen to all of those important life lessons and interesting lives they had led. I have learned so much while working as a CNA, I loved it. I have now achieved one of my goals and that is to get into Nursing School, and become a nurse. I always wanted to become a nurse and now I am. I am a mother of 3 and I have so much patience and care to give. I am very careful and have a lot of experience with the elderly. I am currently a Licensed Vocational Nurse and I am seeking a dependable position to apply my nursing knowledge and provide the best possible care to each and every patient.
