I became a Certified Nursing Assistant because I am a Naturally empathetic individual, and am very sensitive to peoples wishes and needs. I am also a firm believer in Patient rights and want to play a hands on role to ensure individuals are receiving competent healthcare. I once worked for a rehabilitation center and cared for a lady who experienced a stroke with left side weakness. When she was first admitted she could not feed herself. Within three months, she was able to go home. Saying goodbye to her was one of my proudest Accomplishments. The entire facility worked as a team and helped her regain her independence. I am humbled to be a part of her recovery- the epitome of why I became a caregiver. I am 23 years old, I recently relocated from San Francisco to continue my education, for a degree in Nursing. I am very family oriented, enjoy hiking and volunteering as an activities assistant in long term healthcare facilities.
