A lot of my employers ask me why am I in this field at a young age. I started at 19 and am now 24, and I honestly just love the elderly. They deserve amazing care! I love to talk and ask them about their past and assist them while giving them independence. I am a very well multitasker and I have a lot patience learning that from working at the retirement home. I'm studying for my LVN boards and am a Theatre major at El Camino college. I've even had some residents from my other job come and see me perform in a play! That was so heart warming and amazing!
