About Mariah

Everyone is always saying that I have a beautiful smile and I believe it is because they can tell that I truly enjoy smiling! I have a bubbly and very personable personality. I became a CNA in 2008 and have worked in both long-term care facilities and hospitals. Currently I work part-time at Rush University. I enjoy being a caregiver because it is a rewarding job to be able to support people in their time of need. I am most proud of being a frontline worker during this COVID-19 pandemic and showing the world that superheroes wear scrubs not capes!

What makes me a great caregiver I will say that I really care about people I tried to listen to what their needs and wants are and try to provide them with the best of my ability. I'm a caring loving person I believe in treating people the way you want to be treated, I became a caregiver when I was 13 years old taking care of my grandmother and her friends that was Eastern star members. I would go to their homes and prepare their food and take out the garbage and clean their homes in the summertime I found a lot of joy in helping them. The most thing that I enjoy about being caregiver is being there for someone that really needs me, listening to their stories, providing the care that they need. It gave me great joy to know that I am need it and want it. My personal achievement is to start my own group homes for the homeless, for the children, and for the seniors, and for the mentally ill. I want to see if community their work together stays together I think everyone needs each other to make this world a better place to live .
