Certified Nursing Assistant with 4+ years of experience.

I became a Certified Nurse Assistant because I understand how difficult life and decisions can be without basic support on variable mental, emotional and physical levels. I feel that is where my passion and dedication to help others roots from. In my early childhood, the relationship between my grandparents and I was unique and special to me. I would go above and beyond to be helpful around the house whether it was dusting, washing the car or even cleaning up the mess made by the fish my grandfather caught and cleaned for a meal. Many of times, I would just do without being asked. Ultimately, no matter what the duties were, it always gave me this great rewarding feeling inside just being helpful in making the day/night easier for them. Im proud of being able to extend my natural capabilities to anyone/ families who can benefit from assistance.

What makes me a great caregiver is my patience and kindness I have towards others. I always have a smile on my face when I start my day and I'm very understanding of others feelings. I became a caregiver from my own experience with family. I always tell myself that I'd want someone like me to take care of my family member so I apply that to my job. My favorite thing about caregiving is seeing a smile on their face! That means your doing your job right and you're making a positive impact although it can be hard a smile is rewarding My personal achievement is passing my classes,furthering my career to be more educated and professional.

The reason why I became a caregiver is because of my grandmother. I like caring for other because I feel like that could be my grandmother or my grandfather and how would I want them to be treated and cared for. So that is why I make sure that my clients or cared for and are happy when I am there and when I leave and hopefully they are happy to see me when they see me again. Sometimes they just would someone there to talk to and listen to them.
