I got into caregiving as a teen caring for my ailing grandmother who was bed-ridden. I performed what would become known later to me as daily living assistance. By caring for and losing my grandmother, I knew then that i wanted to help pthers. I wanted to help other peoples grandparents lives easier because they can go at any moment. I am a great caregiver because of my ability to empathize and relate to others. I am very much a people person, and can brighten even the darkest room. I like to make people laugh and feel like they can tell me anything. I am a good listener, and very respectful. I don't like my patients to feel uncomfortable, so I do my b est to assure them that no matter what happens, I am there to aid. I have worked with a wide variety of patients with varying ailments and conditions. I am prompt and very sharp. I am also CNA/HHA certified, and also CPR.
