About Tanesia

I am a great caregiver because I am a good listener, I am observant and I am also caring which are the hallmarks for this position. I became a care giver because I want to assist person who may not necessarily have the skills to fend for themselves. My personal achievement that I am most proud of is not an accolade but its a mere thank you that I receive from someone that I provide care for who wouldn't otherwise be able to care for themselves.

    I became a nursing assistant because I enjoy caring for people who need my help. I have been taking care of people for the past 2 years and couldn't hope for a better career. I once cared for a hospice patient who later returned to needing normal care. That was a life changing experience and I was excited about the progress I helped him achieve. I would like to have more experiences like that so I can positively influence other lives.
