About Isha

I am a compassionate individual that have empathy and respect for people. I decided to get trained as a CNA when my grandfather was triminally ill. My family and I looked for someone that was caring respectful but to not avail, so I decided to take up the job. The most thing I like about being a caring giver is the fact that I learn a lot from the elderly, there is always something new to learn from them when you pay close attention and listen to want they have to say. My greatest achievement will be when I get my BSN

I took care of my sick mother until she passed away. Later, a friend introduced me to the field of caregiving. Though I had formerly been a school teacher, caregiving fit like a glove. A client once asked me why I chose this profession, and I told her that I wanted to make a difference in people's lives. I offer personal care, housekeeping services, and companionship. When my client was dying, I held her hand the entire time, not knowing that the daughter had entered the room and observed my action. After her death I received a note from the daughter describing how she had been touched by my action. As a former teacher, I am punctual, compassionate, empathetic, and sentimental; I laugh and cry with my clients. My current job involves caring for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities in their homes. I have recently been providing a client with personal hygiene in the morning through CareLinx.
