About Natalie

I am currently a nursing student at California State University, San Bernardino. I enjoy spending time with family, gardening, reading, and volunteering with Coyote Nurses, a nursing student organization at CSUSB. I chose to pursue a career in nursing and become a caregiver because I have always loved helping people, especially those who need it the most. I enjoy giving my time to others, and offering support. Back in 2010, my Grandpa passed away. My family and I were the primary caregivers for him for about two weeks before his passing. I realized then that I wanted to commit my life to not only helping patients, but their families as well. That was the moment I knew I wanted to be a nurse. The thing I like most about being a caregiver is the personal fulfillment I feel after caring for someone. I finish my task and/or shift knowing I made a difference, even if it doesn't feel like it! One personal achievement I am proud of is entering my last year of nursing school! I will graduate with a Bachelors of Science in Nursing in June 2016. Nursing school took a lot of commitment, hard work, and perseverance. That's something I will always be proud of.

    As a person I am very loving,dependable, carrying,and compassionate about my job and the people I work for. I've been working in this field for 8+ years 2 years with dementia and Alzheimer. I want to make sure my client is happy, satisfied with me and with my job towards the individual; I also can be trusted in anyway, shape, or form. I care alot about what i do because I want to be a good role model toward people around me and toward my kids. I like to make other people smile and enjoy their days with an open mind and positive ,attitude, and thoughts. I also enjoy getting to know other peoples trait in their own and special way cause I know each of us, as human beings are different in every way. What I've accomplished in this work is, I can offer my loving attention towards other people, by making them happy in everyway or so eventhough they are struggling or need people in their lives to lift them up and never give up on everything. I want them to know, there are people out there who care and love about them no matter what the situation is.
