Hello I have been a caregiver since 1992. I started helping my mom with the care of my grandmother and aunts. So I've always had the passion to help others. I like working with elders I think I have a passion for those with Alzheimer's and or Dementia. How I look at a person with this disease is they have taken a break but they're still here. It give me joy when I'm working with someone that has a lot to give and never gives up. I love working with elders because of their wisdom and knowledge they can teach us as all about Life. I've always taken different classes on how to continue working with the elders that gives me peace. Well I'm a mother of 3 and I'm continuing my education to become a nurse many say why I waited so long I say it's never to late I decided when I felt it was time. I would have done it earlier but I felt being my mother and my father caregiver gave me so much joy and I wanted that quality time with them. I didn't want someone else being their sole provider. So, that's why I love being a CNA i love that one on one care and like taking my time with someone that's in need of my assistance.
