About Abby

What makes me a great PCA/CNA, is more or less my love for carring for the client. I'm calm compassionate kind, as well as patient. I will take the time to reassure the client, as well as their loved ones are treated with the up most respect. This is not just my job, it's my calling in life I have always loved helping others. I started carring for others at a young age, it all started w a woman who lost both breast due to cancer, she was an older lady so gentle so kind hearted, buy not even losing her breasts could keep her from being the woman she always was. And from there I just knew. From 2003-2011 I cared for my very own grandma... She was an inspiration to me. She wasn't in the best of health and asked if I could be there for her, and I accepted. I wouldn't have it any other way. This woman needed me and I was going to be there for her, like she were for me all those years ago, she was still there for me even though she felt as if she wasn't. She perished years later, and to this day she is still w me, she lives in me. When I provide care, I like to care for them as if they were my own family. I have also experience working in nursing homes as a CNA, I simply prefer working w less clients.
