About Angelina

I became a caregiver back in 2008. In the city of Wapakoneta, Ohio, where I lived for a year or so. I worked at a place called Wapakoneta Manor (hospice) for 8 month's, I took graveyard in training to be a nurse's assistant. Classes were in the same building where I worked. I love being a caregiver for many reason's, but the one that I relate to the most is helping those who are in need. I enjoy helping and giving to others who smile in appreciation for your service in their hour of need. keeps me balanced. on many level's. Personal Achievement would be the time a patient came in diagnosed with Aids. He had lost both legs, and was in for another amputation to the arm. no other N.A. 's wanted to clean this patient. So I just jumped in and washed him up. Sad though, because he said that I didn't have to, if I'm afraid to. There isn't much left to wash up anyway, he said smiling at me. A part of me felt ashamed of my thought's for being grateful for I'm Aids free. I would like to achieve some certificates along with a degree at some point in my future in this career. I want my son to be proud of me, as much as I am.

    I love serving our senior community. It's my joy to assist them in any daily activities they'd like to pursue or have done for them. My former clients have enjoyed my cooking, housekeeping, laundry, baking, fun conversation and careful attention to detail. I've redefined the word JOB for myself with this motto I live by, "Do what you love and love what you do." My former clients and their families are my best references and will be glad to tell you themselves of my labors of love, loyalty, hard work, reliability and honesty. I have a comfortable and clean vehicle to transport to Dr appointments or grocery shopping or going for a drive, etc. I look forward to meeting you, assisting you and serving you! 😃

    My name is Michelle Brooks and I am a caregiver. I enjoy caregiving because it gives me personal satisfaction that I am able to help my clients live an easier and happier life. I have always had a naturally caregiving spirit, and that is what motivated me to become a registered nurse. I started the RN program at Antelope Valley College in August of 2016 and I consider that to be one of my greatest acheivements. Getting here has been the hardest part this far, however I wouldn't take any of it back, especially the experiences that I have had with my clients while working as a caregiver. I have a fantastic work ethic and any one of my previous bosses/clients will tell you the same. I will make sure that my job is not only done at the end of the work day, but accomplished with a keen eye to detail and an importance set on the happiness and fulfillment of my clients. I hope I am able to help you in the future with any of your personal healthcare needs. Please do not hesitate to contact me for any questions or concerns that you may have. Thank you for taking the time to read a little about me! -Michelle
