About Ashley

Hello! My name is Ashley Coppotelli and I have recently relocated to South Florida. I have been a CNA for 4 years now and it is something I greatly enjoy. I hope to continue to do this in the years to come. I first started CNA work right after high school at one of the local hospitals in my area. I then picked up a second CNA job at a long term care facility to further my understanding and experience. What truly made me realize that I was born to do this was a situation I had faced in 2010. The passing of my Grandmother. She was in the hospital and my family and I had gone to visit her. I distinctly remember the way her face lit up as her CNA walked in the door to check on her. We had not seen my Grandma smile in days (which was not like her). But the impact that her aide had on her, I will never forget. And that's when I realized, I want to care for others and make them happy, just like she made my Grandma happy. I am a very patient person with a lot of love to give. I adore the feeling of being needed/wanted. It breaks my heart that my residents can no longer care for themselves, but I am so grateful that I get to be the one that they depend on. I am proud to have come this far in the medical field and hope to continue on, as this is a job that I've never once dreaded going to. *I am familiar with feeding, bathing, dressing, peri care, wound care, diabetic blood sugar checks, ambulation, hip/knee precaution, post operation vitals, orthostatic vitals, the emptying of foley catheters, JP drains, hemovacs, NG tubes, ostomy bags, colostomy bags, post mortem care, unconscious patients, suctioning, dementia, Alzheimer's, paraplegic, quadriplegic, hoyer lifts, sit-to-stand's, hospice (palliative) care, incontinence, gait belts, etc.

CNA

Jan 2018 - Present
Ashland Healthcare
As a CNA in this long term care facility, the time spent with the residents is more extensive. When I arrive on shift (day shift; 6 AM) the first priority is to get all of my residents out of bed. I must then clean them up, dress them, transfer them into a wheelchair and/or geriatric chair, and make sure they are appropriate to leave their room. Following that, I will go and make their beds after placing them all in the dining hall to eat breakfast. They are all expected to be in there by 7 AM. Once all the bed sheets have been changed and re-made, I will go into the dining hall and assist other CNA's in getting breakfast orders. While waiting for breakfast to be served, I like to go around and visit with as many as I can. Once we serve trays, I will go to the "feeder" section and begin to feed my residents. Following breakfast, we take everyone to use the restroom and then offer to lay them back down in bed. Up until lunch time, I spend my time tidying up my resident's rooms and making sure they have everything they might need for the day. As well as taking them to the restroom when needed. I bathe them, may change them again into more comfortable clothing, and visit with them as they are pretty lonely.

CNA

Jul 2014 - Present
Capital Region Medical Center
I currently work as a CNA in a long term care facility as well as a hospital (2 jobs). I am responsible for my patient's bathing, dressing, grooming and everything in between, from the moment I wake them, until I lay them down for bed. 2014 is when I became a CNA and I want to continue to be able to care for the elderly. It is my passion. I am very patient, understanding and loving and I want to be able to give my love & compassion to those who most need it.

I am a good listener. I try to make my clients feel at ease and feel encouraged to obtain as much independence as they still have. Enjoy listening and sharing each others events of our lives. I love caring for the elderly and disabled but most importantly want them to feel good about themselves. Just want them to know they matter still.
