About Teresa

I became a nurse after seeing my family's own struggles with illness and loss. It makes me feel needed, and it feels good taking care of other people the way I would want my family cared for. As a mother of three small children (including premature twins), as well as my experience in several nursing homes, I have cared for people in all stages of life, and it really makes me appreciate my job and my family. I left my previous employer due to becoming pregnant with twins and after coming to the decision to put my career on hold for my family's benefit. I am now ready, able, and willing to work approximately 20 hours per week. I have my level 2 background check I am IV certified Experienced with g-tubes and tracheostomies BLS

    I became a caregiver because I grew up with my great grandmother as a child and cared for her as she declined thus made me realized how helpless and fragile the elderly can become. The love she gave us was inspiring and that helped me to pass it on to others in my care. 2. What I like about being a caregiver is it gives me a sense of satisfaction knowing that I'm enhancing someone's life. 3. I had a patient that was critically ill, the doctors gave up on her, I cared for her and she lived for 11 years, she died at 106 years old.
