one of the most challenging, yet amazingly rewarding experiences of my life, was the care taking of my grandmother during the last 2 years of her life, from years 105 to 107!! we actually had so many great moments, including fun adventures in her wheelchair that i pushed around her neighborhood in santa clara, ca., visiting her gardening friends, and the local university bookstore and restaurants. being a very curious creature, she loved listening to books on tape, which she did for about 15 years, and we enjoyed sharing our lives in stories with each other. i so appreciate the wisdom of the elders. i found myself laughing with her often in our daily routine. these two years time with her added to my former skills level achieved through mothering 2 children, working with my 3 small grandchildren, and massaging and caring for clents' bodies for 21 years! what i also bring as a caretaker is my positive attitude, joyous fun spirit, brilliant mind and great communication skills.

I am hard working, patient and compassionate. I am able to handle any situation that comes my way, while keeping my composure. I was attracted to this field of work because I believe in making the best possible use of what you have. Being patient and "passive" is not always viewed as a positive thing, but if I can leverage my personality traits to build professional relationships that are mutually beneficial, I believe that is a truly rewarding experience. I am a natural problem solver and that's what makes this job enjoyable for me. I like the fact that every day is different and brings new challenges that translate into learning experiences. I aim to learn as much as possible, at all times, regardless of circumstance. I am proud of the fact that I am able to remain positive and take something away from each experience I have in life.

It makes me a great caregiver because I care about my resident and I always make sure that they are getting the greatest care that they need. I became a caregiver because of my grandparents and also I love caring for other people. My personal achievement that I am proud of is being a Certified Nurse Aide and Medication Administration for 9 years and I run my own Memory Care Assisted Living for 2 years now. You can contact me via text or call or even email.
