About Mercedes

I became a caregiver to learn how to take care of my grandparents better then, I fell in love with it and wanted to help care for others as well. What I like about being a caregiver is being able to help them as much as I can and seeing them smile. A personal achievement of mine is being able to work with anybody and enjoy what I do no matter the situation. I'm a new caregiver fresh out of school but, I learn and follow directions very well. I know how to read a residents facial expression well.

Hi, My name is Tatiana Taylor!! I am proud to say that I've been an CNA for four sweet years, and I love every aspect of my responsibilities. I love being able to help as many needs as possible with no problem. I'm willing to go above and beyond what I'm to do. Growing up I was a big help in being a part of helping out with my grandparents, as time went by I was ready to go out and help my elders in any way as possible. What I love most about being a caregiver is knowing that each and everyday I can make a difference in someone's life.
