About Kansas

I am very personable, empathetic, easy to get along with. I've been working with special needs for 9 years. I know structure with love. Boundaries. And how to have fun. I've always been the type of person that takes care of others. Elderly and special needs are my favorite people ever! So putting the two together seemed perfect. The fact that this is something that not everyone can do really attracted me. The fact that I can do it and do it well I know is a gift. One of my biggest personal achievements (besides my kids) would be working with one family for my whole career. I have had and do have other clients. And even with a few month break with these clients. We ended uo back working together. I have gotten to watchtheur boys grow. And even had a hand in it. That I am very proud of

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.
