About Kassandra

I feel honored to be caring for family loved one's. Taking care of people is my passion being the reason why I am pursuing the career as a paramedic. I love hearing past experiences and learning their wisdom. Caregiving of any age is my passion. I am proud of my motivation to keep pushing to finish what I have started. When I was 18 I became a Highway Patrol Explorer and competed in competitions against other explorers from different units throughout California. My group's turn was up for the CSI crime scene evaluation. Never were we prepared for the competitions and this was our first with no practice before. I chose to be the lead investigator and chose everyone's position for the scene. My group placed first against all other regions that evaluated the same scene. I am proud because we were given something we had no practice of, I stepped up and was the leader, and we did succeed.

    $25.00/hour · Carmichael, CA
    My name is Margaret and I am actively seeking a caregiving position. I have been with my current client for 3 1/2 years but the time has come to make a change. I am a Dementia and Alzheimer's specialist. I am experienced in Memory Care. Memory Care clients are my favorite people in all of healthcare! Though my first pick is with the Dementia and Alzheimer's clients, I have had other clients with other conditions, such as, stroke, diabetes and congested heart failure etc.. In 2011 when my ex mother in law became sick I became one of her caregivers. It was then that I realized how much I enjoyed caring for her. I do believe this is my calling. I was once offered a position as manager of a home health company. I did not think I could do that job. I was right because I need to be the caregiver not the office person. I love my job. I like everything about caregiving. I love my seniors. I love their stories and their laughter. I'm happy when they are happy. I look forward everyday to seeing my seniors. I love cooking, cleaning and fussing over my seniors, so I'm a natural at caregiving. Remember if you love what you do it's never a job. My fee starts at $25 an hour. My fee increases if the shift is split. Also would like employer to pay a share of taxes. I am currently working for $24 an hour but I am not so sure that after 36.5 months it's working. So money is not the deciding factor for me. If you are looking for an experienced Alzheimer and or Dementia CNA , I could be the one!
