I started in 2020 by getting my LNA license finally after working at maplewood nursing home for almost 5 years . The relationships ,and bonds that I formed with my residents is what meant the most to me .That I could help them with anything extra ,anything to maybe turn their day or moment from negative to positive .I have a very big heart and take pride in what I do . I am a very hard worker ,but also a very good listener . Past and current jobs have told me that they like my judgement and kind heart the most . I enjoy every aspect of LNA work,and also the homecare I am doing . I am hoping to start nursing school for my RN next fall . I am always looking forward to new people and helping whoever I can .I also grew up as a kid going to care facililities where my father had always worked .doing activities ,watching tv with them ,or like I said just LISTENING . So I have had a spot in my heart for this kind of work for a long time . I am always on time if not early . And always willing to go above and beyond for the people I am caring for ,but also do what is best for their health. Positivity is key!
