I grew up around helping/taking care of people in their homes. My grandmother has been a HHA my whole life. She would take me to jobs with her, teaching me along the way what to do, how to help, what to say, how to act etc. I am currently in the process of getting my CNA license. I am looking for part-time/occasional work. I have experience in caring for people in their homes. Most recently I worked for a wonderful family caring for their 91 y.o. Mom. I did light house cleaning, dressed/undressed her, assisted her to the restroom, cooked her meals, administered her medication, I basically did everything possible but bathe her because Hospice did that. I truly love helping people. That is why I am getting into the medical field. I am starting back to school in the fall to start an Ultrasound Tech program. I am 30 y.o., married, mother of one. I love this field/line of work, simply because I love people. I love being able to assist and make someone else's life easier in any way that I can.
