Being caring and compassionate makes me a great caregiver. I love to motivate, help, and just simply be a support to people in a caring but still professional manner. I have desired to be a caregiver since the age of 4 years old. As the years passed by and I entered Junior High School, I applied to a Certified Nurses Assistant course at the age of 15, and got accepted into the program. I graduated from the program with my CNA certification, and I've been working as an Aid ever since. I attended Radford University, where I completed most of my prerequisite classes, but then transferred to J Sergeant Reynolds where I will get my BSN, and become a Registered Nurse. I enjoy meeting different people, and helping out to the fullest of my potential to make activities of daily living go by a little smoother for the physically, or mentally impaired.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
