    I am currently Medtech and am looking to work as a live-out CNA or caregiver. I have been caring for seniors for over 6years and I really enjoy it. I have worked professionally ranging from private family cases to nursing homes,assisted living and agencies.The warmth, the love and the little thank yous' are what motivate me. I am very patient.honest, compassionate, understanding and very reliable. I do drive and own a vehicle to aide to the outdoor needs of my patients; going out to places,grocery shopping,doctors appointments and fun activities. I also have experience as a recreational therapy assistant thus I learn about the person I am to care for and try to bring in interesting activities to make their days brighter.I like pets, but have a reaction to cats. I am a diligent christian, also a non-smoker nor into drugs.

    I became a caregiver because of my grandmother whom i loved dearly. Before she died i was her caregiver, and while i did my best to care for her, at the time of her death i felt like i could've done more to have made her comfortable had i'd been more educated in doing so. I get to lift up the spirits of downhearted indiviuals such as the elderly and infirmed by making them feel loved and still relevant. Having played a part in raising my beautiful daughter to be the intelligent and loving young lady she is today. Despite life's many challenges, i continue to live with this mind set "KEEP IT MOVIN" meaning, i will never allow anyone or anything to stop me from being who i am "a nice person."
