My name is Diana, I am 26 years old and live in Arizona. What attracted me to being a caregiver was seeing first hand what a difference you can make in someone's life. I chose caregiving as a career because I enjoy taking care of others. I am a kind, loving, understanding, helpful, organized, trustworthy, responsible person and I enjoy making people laugh. My first job as a caregiver was at an assisted living home called Vintage Gardens. There, I cared for residents who had dementia, diabetes, heart conditions and who were both deaf and blind. During my time at Vintage Gardens, I received my Medicine Technician certification and was soon able to give the res. their scheduled medication prescribed by their doctors as well as care for wounds. I enjoyed my time at Vintage Gardens not just because I was given the opportunity to care for my res. but most importantly, I was able to be there as a friend and companion. I then was given the opportunity to work at Valley Children's Hospital in Madera, CA as a Pediatric Care Technician. I left my job there to move to Arizona. My duties consisted of taking vitals, toileting, bathing, documenting activity, input and output, as well as assisting Nurses with IV's, picking up blood and platelets from the lab for transfusions when needed and communicating with patients and parents and helping them feel as comfortable as possible. I worked in different departments such as respiratory, surgery, gastric, rehab and oncology. I have been blessed to work alongside such a great team. Though I was saddened to leave such a great hospital, I will continue to be the best care giver I can be wherever given the opportunity. My significant other is in the Air-Force and is stationed in Phoenix, Arizona, which is the reason I departed. I am excited for this new journey in a new place. I assure you, I will provide the best care to your loved one.
