About Latoya

My name is Latoya Smith I have worked privately as an adult caregiver for 3 years. I've assisted adults with grooming, meal preparation and eating, distributing medications, transportation and appointments, cleaning, companionship and any other necessary needs. I decided to become a caregiver because I am passionate about the well being of all people. I enjoy providing assistance and companionship to those in need. I love to provide my clients with a familiar and trusting face. In May 2014 I graduated from Allstate Career with a diploma in Medical Assisting also receiving certification in CPR. In July 2014, I was tested by the National Phlembotomist Association and I received my certification as a Licensed Phlembotomist. December 2014 I was granted permission to set before the state examination for Medical Assisting, I am currently a Registered Medical Assistant . I plan to continue my education in the health field while taking care of people who need me.

    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.
