I enjoy working with people and I most enjoy jobs where I have one-on-one interaction with others. I enjoyed taking care of my elder family members and would like to help others in this way. I like older adults and feel I can get along well with a variety of elders. I like doing work that has the potential to make a difference in someone's life. I like doing a variety of tasks in a day. I don't ever say, "That's not my job" but instead like pitching in to do whatever is needed. I like making someone smile and doing little things to make a person's day better. I take pride in attending to detail.

I'm a very compassionate person and love taking good care of people. I always manage to make my clients smile by treating them like adults, paying them respect, and being very patient. Being a caregiver or a nurse assistant is not just a job; it is a passion. I have a CNA as well as med-tech, CPR, and First Aid training.
