About Somkene

I love caring for my patients. I began my caregiver journey after spending years bedside by my late grandmother after she got a stroke. I have been able to see how important having a caregiver who actually cares about their patients first hand. I am proud to be a CNA and I am always ready to help cultivate an environment full of smiles and comfort. :)

As a child I used to take care of my younger brother, my grandmother and sick relative. I was often asked to do that because they can see in me that I enjoy taking care of them. I would rather help on household chores than play. I was attracted to do caregiving because I don't see it as a job, its my passion. I graduated Bachelor of Science in Nursing.
