Hi I been working in this field for over a decade I started when I was 18:) My first real job was at Sunrise of La Palma I started by volunteering with my friends after school to getting hired soon after I graduated high school:) I love listening to the elderly talk about their past and their accomplishments. They are wise and I love to be around them for that reason. I'm talkative, outgoing, and always smiling like my past patients have nicknamed me smiley, I'm compassionate, and trustworthy. I currently have my CNA and I'm in school as well pursuing my career:) If you have any questions I would be pleased to answer them.
