I have an outgoing and very caring and compassionate personality. I was first attracted to becoming a caregiver in 98 two years after graduating from high school. I wanted to give back to others who have given soo much of their love and compassion to their own families and friends over the years, back to them. I enjoy most about being a caregiver being able to make another happy, and stress free by being able to take care of all their needs. A personal achievement of mine is when I earned my certification as a C.N.A yrs. ago after taking classes and doing clinicals.

I started working with patients in 2015 and completely fell in love with taking care of others. I have never worked a job where healthcare wasn't involved. I genuinely enjoy helping other live their best life. I love working with people from infancy to elderly and everything in between. I am compassionate and treat others the way I would want a caregiver to treat my family member.

I have experience with dementia patients and enjoy helping others which is why I chose a career in Home health. From experience I know how hard it can be to watch a family members health fade and When you have limited time to be there for them it is that much more difficult. This is what I am here for. I will be there when you can't be.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I enjoy helping the elderly and I've been a CNA for the last 4 years and I also do home health care also. I've worked in nursing homes where there was many of residents that needed help with ADLs.

I am a very caring person and have 3 years of experience with adult care. I have loved the experience and knowledge it has granted me. I wanted to do this job after my grandma became very ill in 2013 she had a lot of nurses and HHA's coming in to see her and I always looked at them as hero's for taking care of my grandma. I enjoy getting to sit down and learn my clients what they like or dislike. My favourite part is to learn about their story in their life. I am personally proud of what I have picked up through the years knowing as much as I do about dementia or Alzheimer's or even how to properly take care of our senior citizens.

I'm Brittany I have been a CNA for 3 years now I have experience working in nursing homes and home health! Baithing,feeding all the needs they need! I also have references! I love what I do and I loving helping others who need it! I love working in nursing homes but due to the amount of residents I feel as if I don't get enough one on one time
