About Denisefrances

I became a caregiver because opportunities for nurses from the Philippines closed in this country. What I like most about caregiving is that it's close to the way nurses look after their patients but it gets more deeper than that. Because you spend more time with the patient and you focus your attention solely to 1 patient only. I am proud that I was able to finish my nursing program and I am now starting my pre- med courses. I am also proud that I was able to work and study at the same time. I attended a 4 year nursing program in the Philippines. I worked as caregiver in Monterey, California for 1 year with an elderly 90 years of age. I am currently enrolled at Pasadena City College and studying pre- med courses as of the moment.

    What makes me not a great care giver but, a good caregiver are tools of education, understanding, knowledge and compassion with an emphasis on debilitating diseases. I became a caregiver when my husband was diagnosed with Interstitial Pulmonary Disease he was given five years life expectancy. I learned how to best care for him which was challenging in every way imaginable. At the same time I enrolled in a CNA program worked at a convalescent hospital night shift in the Alzheimer Unit in Grass Valley California from 2003 thru 2007. In all these experiences what I took to heart years later was very effective in caring for my mother. My personal achievement in this line of work is having family and friends trusting me with their care which is endearing to me.
