About Nevada

Because I love working with people especially the sick individual of all ages. It is rewarding for me and I feel it is what I am called to do in this life.Seeing the people I care for thrive, become better. I like assisting and caring for the people I work with. Caring for a stroke patient who was comatose and seeing that patient improve from being bed bound to a wheel chair to a walker to walking with a cane and going home. It took a lot of team effort but It was awesome. I am a retired RN who started as a nurses aid to a LVN the to RN. I worked in nursing for 30 years give or take a few years and loved every bit of it. My last job was 2008 I was looking forward to retirement. I've become board with retirement and want to work a couple of days a week. Since I was employed in the medical field I decided this is the best field for me to work.I want to work as a companion/caregiver at this time. I have no problem with giving baths,bowel and bladder care and anything in between. I love all aspects of care giving. I did not add a lot of pass work experience if needed I can send an indept resume.

    Since I was a child, I've loved helping other people. I enjoy working with people of all ages and circumstances. What excites me most about this position is the opportunity to help those with disabilities live happier, healthier lives. I think helping other people affects the local community positively, so I'd feel honored to accept such a vital role. I'm interested in being a caregiver because I'd like to increase the amount of care the elderly population receives. As I learned through my previous health care experience, this population often benefits from caregivers who provide companionship and who pay attention to detail. This can help improve the daily lives of this population. I'd love to be a part of that effort through this position and help improve the kind of care this group receives
