She live with me until she was placed in afull time nursing facility.my father was also at the second stages of Alzheimer's and dementia my mother was placed in an acute facility and at that time my father could no longer take care of himself. He came to live with me after 3 months of living with me the Alzheimer's and dementia had progressed and His congestive heart failure. Thats when I learned how to do all the duties of a Cna.I like being able to help people and their familes.I've been in the position of taking care of a loved one and parent and I know how it feels to need a little help and just a break and a little time to yourself.Thats why I want to be a caregiver.I am a very outgoing compassionate caring person.

    My name is Christina Lopez. I have been a caregiver for 10 plus years. I am very compassionate and love to help the elderly continue to be independent as much as they can in their own home. I have always loved helping others and enjoy spending my time with elderly. They always have such great stories from their life experiences. I was with my last patients for 7 years. In that time I grew to love them very much as if they were my own grandparents.
