About Garrett

I became a caregiver after graduating highschool because I wanted to get a job that actually meant something and I thought I'd make a big difference in this field. One thing I like about being a caregiver is I really like helping people who are in need it makes me feel good about myself that I can be there for someone who really appreciates what I am doing for them. One personal achievement that I am proud of is actually getting through the CNA class I decided to take because I wouldn't be where I am if it wasn't for that. One thing I can say about myself from what other people have told me is I am a diligent worker always considering others and that I can always make someone smile even when they are feeling really down

    I have been a Caregiver/Med tech for 4 years. I really find working with Elderly enjoyable. I'm also a Certified Medical Asst. I'm very experienced with cooking and create healthy meals. In addition, I started a garden at my last job for the 6 ladies I was honored to spend time with. I think we all could learn from our elders, they have so much to give to us. Thank you for your time and consideration.Gina

    I'm such a caring women, it just comes naturally, ever since I was little I've always cared about others always tried to help other kids or adults. I was personal caregiver in Easthampton and I am graduated medical assistant, I've worked with newborns to seniors for 8 yes, I'm a mother of 3 and I've taken care of my grandmother not to mention I did volunteer work at the palmer Alzheimer's home!! It in my blood I absolutely love caring for others. I'm professional and I put others needs before mine! My grandfather passing away 2 yrs ago was very hard for me and the way some of the caregivers treated him made me so upset I don't think some people should be caring for others..I believe its not just a job paying you ..you have to enjoy your job! Now my grandmother is I'll and in a nursing home some of the things I see and hear I just don't like..so I feel even if its just me one person..at least I know and believe I would make a difference!
