Hello my name is Kendra Johnson I have been a Certified Nursing Assistance for 16 years I have worked in different settings nursing home,hospice care, hospital, home care in more. I have a passion at what I do I love it .

I was too young to remember the story but my aunt says when I was 4 years old, that I comforted and reassured her when she was crying over a breakup with her boyfriend. I believe this was the beginning of my journey to care for others. I majored in Social Work and have had a wonderful 27 year career of working with children, adolescents and the aging. I have worked at UVA hospital where I gained insight into the importance of maintaining good health and how devastating a disease or accident is on one's health and life. I have worked for department of social services and assisted the aging with receiving the services needed to remain in their home or to move into a facility. At this time, I am doing "hands on" care in people's home to assist them with various activities of daily living. My mother was bedridden for many years and I was one of her primary caregivers. I know the burden on family when caring for a loved one and the importance of support. My grandfather lived to be 96 and I was there for him to assist with shopping, meal prep, housekeeping, medication reminders and transportation. I cherish the times that I spent with my mother and grandfather caring for them. I also cherish the support I received from others.

I have 20 plus years in the medical field primarily in patient care and really have enjoyed helping and working in my community . I strive to provide the best care possible for my clients and treat everyone with dignity and respect. This is my work but also my passion.

Caring for others has been a lifelong passion of mine! I'm happiest when helping others, so I find this field of work very rewarding in many ways. I grew up watching my mother learn and be a great nurse so she is definitely my inspiration. What I enjoy most is definitely just making a difference, being able to be there and insert patience and understanding in a situation of discomfort. Many don't understand how hard it can be to accept help when you have always helped others yourself, that's the role of a caregiver.

I have a caring and compassionate heart. I am very attentive toward the needs of my clients. They deserve and will always receive the utmost respect from me. I will always do more than is expected of me, with the integrity of a professional caregiver. Call me, so we can discuss your needs.

I am very understanding to what people's needs are. I have worked in the public service area for 25 (plus) years and am very compassionate about my work. I am very easy going and adapt well to change. If needed I can give my opinion on things if asked. I love my job. I feel people will benefit from my experience .

I have worked with other residents before and I make sure that I take care of them correctly because it is how I would want to be taken care of. I am very good and doing things on a schedule. I am good with time. I make sure no one gets hurt and I do my best to get to know you.
