About Nannette

What makes me a great caregiver is that I have over 18 years of experience being a caregiver/CNA. I understand what's it's like from the other side, people have always told me that I'm compassionate and have great empathy. I have always loved working with the elderly and have always felt that my clients are like family to me. One of my proudest achievements is that when I was working as a CNA in my 20s I always had nursing students shadow me. I was told by the instructor it was because I was extremely professional in my job and I always treated my patients like they were my own family.

My name is Shameka and I love being a caretaker. I am a very easy-going punctual loving person.Being a caregiver it's not a difficult task when you have a passion to help people.I believe the thing that makes me a good caregiver is that I don't look at my Patients as clients I treat them as they are my family By providing caring hands with a caring heart. My interest in becoming a caregiver was when my mother was diagnosed with diabetes and became blind in both eyes. I decided that I would take care of her and provide the best care possible for my mother .
