About Karina

I am such a loving person. I believe I was made to be a Mother figure to all. I care for others as if they are my family. I had a little brother who had cerebral palsy and when he passed away it inspired me to be a caregiver and care for others. I loved caring for him and being there for him and I want to do the same for other families, because I know the struggle of trying to find the right person that you trust for your loved one. What I enjoy the most of being a caregiver is getting to be a part of amazing families and being there for them is by far the best feeling ever.

I believe what makes me a great caregiver is that I take care of all my patients as if they were my own family and make sure they are comfortable and most importantly I listen to their needs. I first became interested in health care when my mother was ill and needed care herself and realized that I had a real passion for helping others. I enjoy knowing that the family can be at ease knowing I'm there taking care of their loved ones. At Long Beach Memorial I was know as the "sitter whisper" because whenever they had a difficult patient they would alway assign me that patient and by the end of the day the patient would no longer require restraints or was completely compliant and friendly. They always ask what was my secret and I would say I simply listen to what their needs are.

I'm a compassionate and patient kind of person. I'm a single dad to a 11-year old daughter after taking care of my wife who died of cancer for 3 years. My mantra in life is to treat other people the way I wanted to be treated. My daughter is always saying that I'm too nice. People who would meet me and my daughter for the first time are saying that I'm raising my daughter as kind and polite as I am. I'm eager to learn new knowledge and open to suggestions. I would rather ask questions than pretend to know everything and fall short of the expectations. I always put myself in my patients'shoes to understand them better. It is not them but it's the illness that is making them not to be themselves at the moment. It feels great to be appreciated by the patient and their family for what i've done to lighten the everyday pain in their lives. I'm proud with what I do, and I find other ways to do my best by adding value to the career I've chosen to do.
