About Sheila

Hey my name is Sheila Coates I am a cna I have been in nursing for about 30 years.. I enjoy working with the sick and elderly I like to cook and clean for them and make them feel comfortable in their own homes this is my heart desire is to be a help to the sick in need ... I went into nursing when I was young I started out in housekeeping when I was 16 I started working on the floor when I was 17 Bathing Changing their clothes, changing, diapers brushing the teeth feeding Exercising with them taking walks outside Just taking care of all of their daily needs working in a facility that I was at for about 20 years and I've also sit in homes for about eight years. I went into nursing because I have five kids of my own. They are grown now, but I've always said if anything would happen to them I wanted to be the one to take care of them, because I worked in facilities and I know and saying they care that some get and I said if I can help it, my children would never go have the same attitude when it comes to me if anything would happen to me I never wanna stay in a facility I wanna get taken care of in my home or either in their home . what I do I have a heart and a passion for taking care of the elderly and sick. I enjoy the conversations of their childhood and growing up. I love cooking and cleaning because if you get care in your home, your household needs to be cleaned and you need a home-cooked meal if you have a dog or a cat, I don't mind taking care of them too ...

I am a kind, caring, patient, understanding and very loving person. I became a caregiver to my mother about 20 years ago. She had been diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis which eventually crippled her. I supported her with very many of her daily living needs. Which I enjoyed doing ...so I decided that I would do it for a living. Being a caregiver for me is very rewarding. I enjoy helping people and seeing them achieve the independence that they are seeking. I lost my mother at the end of 2019 but being her caregiver for so many years allowed me to spend a lot of time with her. Now I enjoying caring for others.
