About Brittany

I beame a CNA becuase my mother had sick some years ago and could bare to see my mom like that. so while in high school at time i found out that they had CNA program and so idecide to take course and graduated as a CNA in high school. what i like about being a CNA/CAregiver is tha knowing i put a smile on my clients face knowing that i made their day or made them happy. I treat my clients like I would treat my mother with love, and care that they need. The most personal achievement is that i had this patient in this nursing where work in california my fisrt CNA job. The CNA's there told that this specific patients was grumpy and being mean to all the nursing staff. So that day he was my patient i came with a smile on my face and being polite, introduced my self told that would taking care of and if needed anything that i was the one to call. After that his mood change becuase its was he birthday and someone actually paid some attention wit some interest on getting to know this him. The results was he was a happy camper. I am someone you would love to have on your team because i have to the compassion to care people, i bring confidence, comfort, support and good customer service and i'm easy to get along with. i love what i do and i'm going to futher my career in nursing.

I am a caring, compassionate, kind, patient, honest and reliable caregiver. I enjoy being a caregiver knowing I am helping people in various ways to achieve keeping their lives as normal and less stressful by doing all that is required and doing it well. I am the oldest of three and when my parents were at the age where they needed assistance I was there for them and realized they're so many other families in this situation and they are not able to be there for them. I enjoy meeting people and making a difference in their lives so that they can remain at home and not worry how will they do it.
