About Essence

Some personality traits that help me be a great caregiver is I have a really big heart. I genuinely care and concern about my patients and even their loved ones. When going through CNA school I was taught something that stuck with me and that was to always treat your patients the way you would want your mother to be treated. My mother is a nurse and I took a lot of fuel credit courses in high school that just drive my interest in healthcare. I've just always wanted to make a difference and I've found such a love for being a caregiver. The thing I enjoy most about being a caregiver would hands down being able to help those whom need it. I just enjoy making life easier for my patients and their families. I begin nursing school in the fall and I am very excited to advance my studies within nursing!

I care deeply about every patient that I have had the pleasure to be able to care for.I became interesting in becoming a care giver after my grandmother past in 2007.We took great care of her til.she was 95 years old.I became a private care giver just after her passing(doing in home care giving living private) I did that for 8 years...Then I expanded and started doing more traveling and became CPR CERTIFIED and became a PCA.I love what I do and will go above and beyond for the patient and families of the patient.I also had both of my parents that recently just passed that I took very good care of.. My mom had a heart disease and my dad stage 4 rectum cancer whom mom just passed on June 27 2019 , and my dad a little over a month later Aug 19 2019. I went over and beyond for both parent's and will do the same for any other FAMILY.. My heart is what makes me a great caregiver!!

I became a care giver because I was an LPN and was injured on a job, and I still wanted to take care of people. My mother had Alzheimer's and I realized it was really hard finding dependable caregivers that really cared for patients. I give each patient my undivided attention and treat them like they are my mom or dad, and make them feel like they are the most important person in the world.
