About Adriana

1. My family was involved in an automobile accident one summer. Even though I was just five years old It was not hard to tell which nurses and doctors loved their jobs. There was one nurse in particular that I still remember. The compassionate care she offered during that tragic time is the reason I have chosen nursing as my profession. 2. I like being a caregiver because I get the opportunity to make a positive impact on a patient and family that are going through a scary/difficult time. I like the friendships I've made with clients and staff. What I love most is bumping into a former patient outside the facility and they still remember me by name. 3. I am a caregiver by nature, genuinely interested in the wellbeing of others. I take my responsibilities seriously, seeking what needs to be done and doing it right.

As a young kid at 11 years old, I help take of my aunts mom who had Alzheimer's, took care of my sick brother who was in and out of hospital for 3 months. Later in my life when I got here I got here in the bus by 2008 I took care of my mother who just a had stroke she bed bound for over a year, I was 24 hours caregiver, she recovered from in the middle of 2010, and then early 2012 she was diagnosed of stage 4 lung cancer, I took care of until she past away four months later. After she past then I became my father in-laws primary caregiver as o have been already during the time my mother in-law is sick. My father in-law suffers from deabetes type 2, and dementia was there for him from the beginning until the end stage of dementia and eventually until he past away on June, 2015- I discover since I was young that I love caring for people I love to make people happy,...I know that caregiving is gift that I was born with, I know that this is hard job for a lot people if it's not nature to take on big responsibility. I take that responsibility seriously just like I would care for my own family.
