About Elvin

I used to be a teacher and I enjoy working with people. I am currently a Certified Nursing Assistant and Home Health Aide in California and am almost done with Vocational Nursing program. I did not have a chance to care for my mother since she died when I was young and it gives me great satisfaction whenever I have a chance to make a difference in other peoples life. I am a person who takes pride and ownership of whatever I do. I willingly go beyond my duty if My action will prevent a potential accident or injury. One of my personal experience is when I saw this old man as I step out from YMCA in Glendale. He was was rocking himself trying to stand up using his wheeled walker. I helped him up but noticed that he was wobbly. I had him seated on the walker and pushed him to the bus stop in Brand where we waited for the employees from the facility where he lives. Given a chance, I intend to make a positive impact on my client well being. I am trustworthy and does not need to be told of what to do.
