It is in my DNA to help. It is what I do best & where I am most content. It is my joy to give others joy in what ever way that is for the individual. I find it a challenge & a blessing to work with a person who may be considered a challenge to work with, & with some good listening skills & some T.L.C. get that person to relax & not be so demanding. A little about me. I have two hobbies that keep me grounded & contribute to my personal & professional life. One is photography, I do mostly nature & wild life, which teaches me patience & being still to listen. Second, refinishing/painting furniture. This allows my creative nature to open & flow, think out side the box. Take something old, dull, maybe not so interesting & bring it back to life , new , bright & fresh. My friends & family call me a very positive, encouraging person. I find the good in most all situations & people. I have joy in my heart & I love to share the love & joy with those around me. I like living.

I have many years of experience working with different age groups both in and outside of healthcare and I have really enjoyed it! I also have the necessary skills that are needed to care for a person with healthcare issues such as medical monitoring, medication administration, nutrition, etc. I also have a solid understanding of the pathology of many different diseases and illness such as diabetes, dementia, heart disease and the like. Most importantly I possess critical thinking skills needed to identify an emergency or changes that may lead to the need for further care. I possess a high degree of both professionalism and empathy. I have a great sense of humor and a ton of life experience. I treat my patients just as I would my own family and friends.

I have been a CNA/CMT for 24 years. I have worked in a wide variety of healthcare settings. I enjoy being a caregiver the most because I know it's a Job that can truly have an impact on the quality of someones life.The times I have done home care I found it very rewarding to know that because of me a person was able to stay at home and be more independent than if they had to live in a facility. I am a compassionate caregiver who tries to anticipate what my clients needs are ahead of time.

Became a CNA after years of helping children with mental disabilities. Being a CNA helps me broaden my spectrum of clients I can help.

I have a disabled younger brother and was raised by my grandmother. I have always wanted to help others and have always been in a situation that I was able too and I don't see myself doing anything else but this for work. I have worked in a private facility with my amazing work partner with the same experience if not more- we are both looking for a one on one that requires a two person assist as we live together and commute together we will not disappoint with our knowledge and professionalism, as we are both asking for an hourly rate I hope you will take into consideration that two is better than one when it comes to taking care of your loved ones so every little detail can be monitored with fresh eyes and extra hands. :)
