About Kristina

I worked as a Certified Nursing Assistant, caring for seniors at Ridgecrest Healthcare Center (now known as Bella Sera). I have experience in feeding, bathing, and helping with all activities of daily living. I was also a patient care technician at Davita Dialysis Center. I am familiar with working and socializing with adults with dementia and Alzheimer's disease. My own grandmother had Alzheimer's and I was one of her caretakers for some time, so I'm passionate about caring for adults and seniors that need help and social interaction. I have my own transportation and auto insurance.

I care for the elderly/disabled in a kind and compassionate manner which allows them to retain their dignity as much as possible. Caring for others is something I always desired doing and I really enjoy getting to know people and making their daily lives better in any way I can. Raising my autistic child into the man he is today has been my greatest achievement and a vast source of personal growth.

I always try to treat my clients like I would like my family to be treated by a caregiver. I use to help my great grandpa with daily things and he inspired me to be a caregiver. Seeing them doing better then when I started out. Being able to chase my dreams and work at the same time as I'm doing school.
