About Colleen

I became a certified nursing assistant in 1991 because I was curious and ambitious to learn more about the elderly that has been here before my time here on this earth. They have a very distinct way of morals and believes and there is much to learn from them. I enjoy helping this generation through there caring needs as they have far more than deserve assistance. I personally Love to achieve helping a client with happiness for the care that they need that was once so easy for them such as just brushing their teeth or taking a shower having there favorite drink or food served to them there is so many simple tasks to help with so that Is what I am there for to help with simple needs and I am from the country a small little town where everybody knew everybody and the daily news paper was about who was having company and what they where doing for the day or week so we had a couple of swimming holes a laundry mat a post office 2 general stores the little fire truck with the sheriff there too not much going on there

    I've been a private caregiver for over 30 yrs. I also became CNA IN 2012, then recently converted to an LNA (licensed nurses aid) and earned a B.S. in psychology at Liberty University with a Minor in Biblical Studies. This license comes with in-depth background clearance. LNA verification number on Arizona Board of Nursing: 258047. I enjoy caring for the elderly & assisting them in daily activities. I have a background in Special Education for students K-12 with learning disabilities.

    I have always cared about the failing & ailing, whether it be family, friend, neighbor, or referral. I am in Nursing school. I have also helped people solve personal problems; ie, helped a senior get back his social security $$ when someone else defrauded his account. I actively listen and encourage people to make their own choices.
