It gives me great pleasure to help others. I am proud of my experience and the willingness to always learn more. I first took care of my Great Aunt when I was in high school. She was dying from cancer. I came home after school and went to her house and would spend the night. I cooked for her, helped her get ready for bed and most of her cares.

I am looking forward to continuing this as your care giver.

Hello, My name is Christina. I've been a caregiver for just over 10 years now. I love my job. I love getting to know someone on a very personal level and trying to make life alittle easier, if only for a little while. I've always wanted to work in the medical field. After getting some wisdom from some family that had been in it for many years, I decided to start with my Certification for nursing assistance first. I've done facility and private care for many years each and love the impact that I have had and equally received from my patients. I've done almost every skill that you can think of, from driving to doctors apt. to staying over night for end of care, and everything in between. One of the things Im most proud of, in regards to caregiving is becoming 'part of the family'. I love that I can give the family members a sense of security knowing that I am there for thier loved ones.

Hi, it is my pleasure to tell you about myself. I have an extensive education and employment history. I have a bachelors degree in communication studies and an RN nursing degree. I have been employed, including management and training others, in business sales, customer service, hospital units and homecare. Specifically related to healthcare, I believe in treating everyone with respect and dignity and I care for others as I would my own family. I believe in being proactive and strive for clients to live in their maximum capabilities. The reason I got into healthcare and continue is I have always had the mindset - if I can do one thing or many things in a person's day to make their day better then they and I reap the benefits. I believe the personal reward is as important as the monetary reward. I believe my reputation speaks for itself and would happy to provide references and a copy of my resume. I've always been recognized as the "very nice/ sweet happy girl " .
