Responsible, caring and emphatic are words that would best describe me. I decided to become a nurse after seeing my grandmother lose her memories to dementia and I have a passion for caring for those suffering from the same illness. What I enjoy the most about taking care of those with dementia is when you have a conversation with them and something sparks a forgotten memory and you can see it in their eyes, how happy they get. That makes the job more than a job. I attended RiverOak Technical College in Live Oak, Fl in 2018 and recently graduated. Before that I was a CNA for four years working in LTC. I now work as an LPN in LTC but, I'm branching out into home care.
Caregivers that work non-full-time jobs or irregular shifts can negotiate extra compensation in addition to their standard hourly wage.
