I am 20 years old. I have been an STNA since i have been a junior (2016). I have worked in the health care field for 3/4 years now. I have done home health care, nursing homes , & assisted living. I absolutely love my job. I have worked in the nursing home with respiratory, dementia, all different kinds.

I'm an honest loving reliable person very dependable

Hi, my name is Carrie and I have been a caregiver for 25 years. I worked as an LPN for nearly 20 years. Although, I no longer practice licensed nursing, I have maintained the skills and will always have the expertise I gained during that time. Most of those years were spent with Alzheimer's, Dementia, Hospice, and Behavioral patients; along with Diabetes, Wound Care, Trachs, Vents, and patients with feeding tubes or any type of drain. I look forward to helping your loved one maintain their best abilities safely within their home.

Two personality traits that have helped me within care giving is that I am very patient and my demeanor is very calm. The great stories and advice from previous residents are what have attracted me into the caregiving side. I love spending quality time and being there to be a support system for the residents. One personal achievement I am proud of is that one of my pieces of poetry that I wrote back in September was selected to be published in a poetry book.

Loves helping others

I'm a very upbeat and positive person! I've been a caregiver for four years now and love helping others. I was attracted to being a caregiver because I've always felt like my job on earth is to help others and make them happy. I have plenty of experience and I'm currently a senior in nursing school!

I became a caregiver caring for my sister with autism and then my grandfather who had a tracheotomy and needed a caregiver and I cared for him. I realized as a teen that I had a gift for helping people and wanted to do it as a career.

What makes me a great caregiver is that I take my time and sit down and talk to the person im caring for. Ask them what they like and dislike and how I can help them without making them feel helpless. I always want to care for people since I was a small child. Growing up watching my mom do it and then having to take care of my own grandmother while she was battling lung cancer. What I enjoy about being a caregiver is that you can learn so much about people that everyone is different. Learning how they grew up and the goals they made makes me want to better myself as a person. My personal goal i have met? This hits hard. I was a young mom at 15 so I was put threw a lot of hoops. My biggest goal was actually getting my GED going to college and becoming the caring loving person I am today. My kids always make strive to do better and be a great teacher to them. One day I'll be a medical assistant.

I work with full integrity, love and compassion. I enjoy meeting new people to help and build a bond with to the fullest of my capabilities.

I have been a nurse for 23 years. With so much changing in healthcare I miss the personal patient connection and care. I would love to get back into it. I genuinely love taking care of and helping people.
