About Susan

Hi my name is Susan. I have worked as a Home Health Aide, Caregiver, and Provider for approximately 10 years. I recently became certified as a CNA and have a certificate through the California Department of Public Health. I am very patient and love meeting new people. I am currently going to school and will be graduating in Fall 2020 with an Associates degree in Health Science while continuing my education in Nursing. I have always been a nurturing person and I love to help people if I am able to. What I enjoy most about being a caregiver is that I get to learn a lot from those I am caring for. I love learning from the elderly and children. I am proud that I have accomplished some of my goals into advancing my career and I really love what I do. I just hope that I made a difference in someones life as they did in mine.
