About Felicia

I became caregiver because I got tired of hearing about how some caregivers treated their patients and because my mother was sick and I took care of her until she passed away. I would give the same care and concern as if they were a part of my family. I like being able to help others in a way that they are not able to take care of themselves. I have a passion for taking care of people because one day I may be in their shoes and I would want someone to take care of me in the same way. One of my personal achievements I am proud is taking care of my mom when she needed me the most. Also finishing school at my age and getting high honors , also a plaque for dedication and perseverance. I go above and beyond the duties I am suppose to do. I attend church mostly every Sunday and I volunteer to facilitate groups for people who are just coming out of a long term rehabilitation center for drugs and alcohol. I have three kids and I work also at Macy's. I am a hard worker and a quick learner. I have experience as a Nurse's Aid . I recently graduated from Branford Hall Career Institute as a Registered Medical Assistant.
