About Christina

I think what makes a person a great Caregiver is someone who had compassion and respect for those they take care of. I'd like to say I fit in that category! My first experience of taking care of someone and all their daily needs was my grandmother. She was fighting cancer and the last month to her passing it was my mom, aunt, uncle, brother and I taking care if her in shifts of 12 hours. It really opened me up to wanting to be more there for other people. It's also what inspired me to become a registered nurse. I love everything about being a Caregiver. Sometimes it's not an easy job, but I always imagine putting myself in the families shoes because of what happened to my grandmother. I'm most proud of the fact that I'm doing so much with my life. I know when I finish my schooling to become a register nurse I'll be able to do so much more.

Hi, I first became a caregiver because I wanted to know what it was like helping someone in need. After my first client I realized how much I love being a caregiver. I enjoy everything about my job. I feal very lucky and blessed to have found my calling. I love learning new things especially if they are medical related. I have done case management in a residential home which included scheduling appointments, ordering medications and/or medical equipment, Interview and training new caregivers and weekly meal planning. I have worked with patients with COPD, hoyer lift,MS,Dementia and Alzheimer's and skin cancer treatments. I have also experience in hospice care. The bond that I create with my clients is a wonderfull experience. I like to bake and try new recepies. On my spare time I like to go shopping, do arts and crafts, read non fiction books and watch movies. Oh and I recently started painting.! I think everyone has something unique about themselves and what ever their talent is or was I like to get inspired by it and try new things.

I have compassion for the Elderly because I had a short time with my grandmother Juanita, she passed away at a very young age. She was an inspiration to me, she was wise and full of love. I want my clients to know that I care for them and they would get the best care. They deserve to be treated well and safe. I love hearing their stories, their wisdom and knowledge.
