About Jene

I have integrity, with the ability to work both in a team and independently. I am keen on observation, and able to document and communicate pertinent information. My caregiving journey began in 2009 when my grandmother was diagnosed with Alzheimers, with no one to assist her, I stepped into the role as her main caregiver. Once the disease progressed I enrolled into a CNA and HHA certification course in order to obtain the knowledge & skills to better care for her in the home. When she passed in 2017, I decided that I would help other geriatrics in a Skilled Nursing Setting. I soon realized that I could do more, so I started setting myself up to enroll in a Vocational Nursing program. I am proud to say that I graduated from the program with honors, and have been working as a LVN in a SNF & clinical setting. I have been trained in wound care, and certified in IV/blood withdrawals. I enjoy caregiving, because not only is it rewarding, it is also a way to build relationships with people from all walks of life, and gain insight into other ways of thinking.

My main focus of care for elderly is giving them the attention and love through the care I give them. Their well being is my priority. I am quite adaptable to any environment and because of that I'd like to think I am very friendly. I understand that not everyone is the same so I tend to approach each individual with an open mindset. This is also why I enjoy caregiving because I get to learn from them about life experiences and as they share their wisdoms. The idea that I could be of help to someone, attracted me to this line of work.

Why did you become a caregiver? My mother was a caregiver, and inspired me to become one and I've been in love with it ever since. What I like about being a Caregiver is that you can give a person a sense of independence while helping them to maintain their freedom of living while assisting them with thier needs, cares and support of living. My personal achievement is that you're never too late to go back to school recieved your High School Diploma and also that I'm a fighter and I'm willing to keep learning new things in life to help me to grow and mature in all experiences that life gives me, as I go through this journey of reaching whats best for my life that God has destined for me.
