I became a cna because I enjoy helping people and being around the elderly. I love listening to the stories that some older people tell, they make me realize how different things are today. I was very close to my grandmother all of my life so when the time came that she truly needed me I am extremely proud of the fact that I had the experience to know that she was having a stroke just from listening to how she was talking to me on the phone. I saved her life that day because I'm good at what I do. I have 4 children (the youngest being 15 months) so I am very good at multitasking and I am very punctual.
