I worked for a year and a half as a home health aide with my 40 hour certificate . Took a break to focus on school , I recently went back to school to obtain my 75 hour home health aide certificate , I have several CEU'S including HIV/AIDS, DOMESTIC ABUSE, FALL PREVENTION , CPR, and Alzheimer's . I have a wide range of experience from children with disabilities to hospice care . I use to go to work for a check , then I broke my ankle and couldn't walk for tow months , I depended on someone to do everything for me and it left me feeling like I was a burden . The second I went back to work I had a greater appreciation for my job and my client . I gave them my all , I assured them their perfect and its my pleasure to be here for you , helping you helps me. I instantly saw the change in them , they felt comfortable with me we had an understanding I was there to help you and make your life easier , not to judge you but to uplift and reassure you I was there because its my calling .
