About Alena

I became a caregiver because a family member of mine wasn't getting acceptable care. I knew that I could do better and I would provide my aunt and all my other patients the care that they deserved. I love caring for others. It gives me a sense of joy to know that I can helping someone in need. I am personally proud of the fact of how much experience and knowledge that I gained becoming a CNA. I love being a CNA and some day soon I hope that with being in healthcare I can do something more fulfilling and open a personal care home.

    Being a caregiver for the past 8 years has helped me in so many ways. I decided to get into nursing when my mother became sick and couldn't do much for herself and I helped day in and day out. I saw how much of a positive impact it had on her and it made me feel great. I have worked in Hospitals, Nursing Home and Skilled Facilities, Private Duty, cases with Shepard center, brain and spinal injury patients. I love what I do in helping each client I've ever worked with whether it be from recovery start and finish or just companionship and daily living activities. Taking care of someone that needs my help and undivided attention gives me joy and it lets me know how truly appreciated I am to help someone who can't do for themself.
