About Gabrielle

I didn't always want to be in the medical field. As a child I dreamed of being an accountant. I went to school at first to learn the front in of a medical office to combine my accounting skills and quickly fell in love with Healthcare. I then ended up getting an associates degree as Medical Assistant. After I graduated in got to experience working as a medical assistant as well as caregiving. I quickly learned how much I love taking care of people and how rewarding caregivers is. It was not easy to quit as a medical assistant with the good pay but I was not happy. I quit as a medical assistant and never went back. I have since then been a full time caregiver and have worked many years in the hospitals but I found I am much happier doing in home care because I can focus more attention on 1 person rather than 12 + people. I am working on getting my HHA certification while I continue in school to become an RN. As a RN I want to continue in school so that I can do the same thing I'm doing now but as an RN and possibly work for Hospice. I would say what makes me a good caregiver is passion. This isn't a job for me this is my career and what makes me happy in life. I feel I was put on this earth to help others and make a difference it's one of the reasons I volunteer for Hospice. Nothing is more rewarding to me then helping those in need especially the elderly. If you have any questions at all please feel free to ask. I aim to please in everything I do so don't be afraid to ask me anything.

    I began my caregiving career as a skilled CNA in a nursing home at the Care Center in Oakdale. Once I perfected my skills and with the proper work-methods, I resumed my work ethics at Oak Valley Hospital in the Rehabilitation Center; and was promoted by The Director of Nursing to a RNA position ( Restorative Nursing Assistant) working directly with professionals such as PT, PTA, Speech Specialists, RNs and Doctors. It was my absolute pleasure to see my patients regain their health and return home to loved ones. With my acquired experience and knowledge, great compassion and kindness, I became an independent caregiver and have worked as a private caregiver for over 15 yrs. I love what I do. I have met many wonderful clients and family loved ones; and graciously, I have received many letters of recognition. Through my caregiving process, I have worked diligently along side Hospice, applying my nursing skills to bring comfort to dying patients. My goal is to bring a quality of life to my clients with much joy and with a compassion filled with gentle kindness. Please see letters of recommendation and summaries of some of my caregiving positions below.
