Hello, my name is caryssa ! I've been a CNA for 7 years and trained for my entire senior year of high school. I worked a little in a hospital so I have some insight on taking care of people in that kind of setting I'm very familiar with residents who are full term in a nursing home, who have dementia, and also residents on a rehab unit recovering from falls at home causing them to break their hips, neck, back and more and trying to my best ability to make them comfortable. I've taken care of people who are actively dying and have terminal illnesses I guess it's safe to say it's what I know best is to take care of people. What I love the most about taking care of people is getting close to them like they're my own family I love my residents a lot. What drew me to being a care giver was the fact that I could help someone or even make their day better just by making them feel safe and well taken care of and in all my years as a care giver I've grown very attached to my residents I love them a lot
