About Cathie

I became a Caregiver because I have a passion and I enjoy caring for people. I like being a Caregiver because it gives me a scent of providing a need in helping people with their everyday activities, desires and needs. One of my personal achievements is seeing and feeling that I am making a positive difference in helping people. I am a Certified Nurse Assistance with an active Basic Life Support (BLS). I have worked as a CNA for over 10 years. I am also a Certified Medical Assistant, with over 4 years experience. I am currently looking for position that will enhance my experience in the medical field. I have been a Licensed Childcare Provider for over 9 years, still with the desire to help people.

    My interest in caregiving started at an early age. Every sunday after church I would visit the sick and shut in members and others who requested prayers. I then attended a Medical Specialty High School and was involved in volunteering at local Adult Day Cares. When I was about 15 years of age my grandmother started developing Dementia and shortly after had a stroke. I became her main caregiver; cooking, cleaning, reading to her when not in school. I love the fact that I get to make a difference in someones day to day life. I tried many different ventures and always ends back into caregiving. This is what I'm meant to do and I'm good at it and enjoy doing it.

    After taking care of mum and dad after a bad road accident I realised how good and strong I am. I love the rewarding effect after giving so much love and passion to a sick or elderly person and the smile they offer you is I believe a sign of appreciation . I nursed my parents back to health for 8 yrs. Am very patient, caring,loving and a good listener. Love my work. Continued the same care for different great families in the USA for over 15 yrs. Have great references.
