Christine Joy C.

Hello, my name is Kayla and I've been a CNA for over a year. I believe that I'm a great caregiver because I'm a thoughtful person that always puts oneself in the shoes of a resident/patient. I've been trained and mentored by amazing knowledgeable CNA's and I feel that it has made me develop and grow to be a respectable CNA. My personality traits consist of always paying attention to detail, to be a loving, caring and a compassionate person. It brings me joy to see my residents/patients accomplish goals in their overall health and behavior and I only desire and wish the best for them. I believe that a good CNA can make a difference in someone's life and outcomes. I'm a team worker and I always offer help if needed. What attracted me to become a CNA was to learn how the nursing field works. My goal is to become a nurse practitioner one day but for me to accomplish that it is very important to be in the field and learn from my surroundings. Once I became a caregiver I knew I was on the right path because I absolutely love what I do. I know that it is my calling to nurse and take care of others because at the end of the day I go home happy knowing that I was of service and help for others. I see my patients/residents as a second family and I enjoy getting to know each and every one of them, I'm always aware that not all of them have the same background or story so I like to be mindful and acknowledge that with every encounter I have with them. One personal achievement I'm proud of is discovering what I want to do career wise with my life, it took me a while to understand what I'm meant to do and now that I know what my path is, I'm excited to keep growing in the nursing field and helping others understand this career path.

I am a very caring and compassionate person. I'm a great listener and also attentive. I became a caregiver because as a little girl, all I wanted to as to take care of people and make them feel better. My favorite part of being a caregiver is seeing my patients happy. One personal achievement I'm proud of is passing my CNA license test.
