I am a very easy going, understanding, and compassionate person. I like to work with the elderly out of respect for them. They once worked hard, loved hard and were a hard working part of society as am I today. I believe in treating seniors with respect and honor as they should. When I was young my great grandmother got sick and was put on dialysis. I got training along with my grandmother to do at home dialysis and would take care of her. During her time on the machines we would talk and I admired her. In her younger years she was a struggling single mother of 4 and still got herself through nursing school to become head nurse at San Joaquin General Hospital. I look up to her as such a strong role model and aspire to do the same. I love sharing time with patients and being an ear to listen. I also love sharing my time. In my time as a caregiver and med tech I have gained many new friendships with not just the "patient" but with the family as I too genuinely care about their safety, health and over all well being. I am proud to have left every client with a great level of care and also a friendship. In my most recent company I made many benefiting changes in my department. I was given the opportunity to make procedures and paperwork easier for the rest of the staff. To this day I carry a great reputation with the remaining employees and still visit former patients.
