About Brittany

I'm a outstanding , loving and caring Nurse and I have been in the Health care field for 11 years and a Nurse going on 4 years. I started out as a caregiver then I went to school for CNA ,Medication aide and Nursing school I am a LVN. I go above and beyond for any patient/residents I have been responsible for. It makes me feel good to know I have helped someone who needs help even if it's simply getting a cup of ice water. Although I am a nurse I would still love to do one on one care for a patient.A personal achievement that I am proud of is completing nursing school!

1. What actually makes me a great caregiver is my willingness to serve others and I believe it's my calling. 2. I became a caregiver because, I have great compassion for individuals in need of personal one on one care. 3. Their are several reasons why I like being a caregiver. The first reason is that I am able to be there for individuals that are in need of help. Another reason I enjoy being a caregiver is because, my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer and after the cancer she went into remission. Shortly afterwards, she was diagnosed with dementia. Recently she was diagnosed with Parkinson. I eventually had to move her into my home and I realized how self fulfilling and rewarding it is to serve others with sincere humility. I feel that as a caregiver each individuals that I care for should receive the best of care, compassion, and the best quality of care that life has to offer. 4. My most greatest achievement is yet to come because, I'm looking to achieve more tomorrow than I have today. Life is a lifelong learning process and when you think that you have achieved your greatest achievement there is still room left for more improvement.
