About Vanessa

Hi! my name is Vanessa and I have been a CNA for 6months now. I am a well trained nurse assistant with the experience I have gained through the months working as one. I enjoy assisting people with their medical needs and being on top of their treatments, chartings, and communications with their nurse, and/or Doctor. I've always wanted to pursue nursing so caregiving seemed to be a great opportunity to submerge myself into healthcare setting. I enjoy bringing joy and comfort as a caregiver to my patients and giving quality care. My personal achievement I'm proud of in being a nurse assistant is knowing that each patient I've ever had has been satisfied. I've never had a complaint on something being not done correctly. I do my best in working efficiently and going above and beyond to keep my patients in the best stability.

I became a caregiver since 2005 and was laid off as a program assistant in a Senior Facility I love to work with seniors and passionate about caring for them because I found them helpless but I have learned so many things through their life experiences and I considered working and helping Seniors as a personal achievement that I am proud of. I am compassionate, reliable, honest, patient and respectful. I am proud to say that I have a quality of a good caregiver since I was the one who took care of my ailing mother before she passed away. I have a heart for Seniors who needs help and care.
