Hello there and thank you for taking the time out to view my profile as a potential caregiver for your loved ones. I am an adventurous mother to two beautiful children. I am a trained medical assistant who graduated from advanced institute in 2009. I later became a security guard working in an urgent care center and drug rehab center, while I was doing that I was working a second job as a home care provider. My combined experience from being a security guard, a medical assistant and now a certified nursing assistant working towards my license practical nursing credential it is 12 years total. I also have a customer service background which makes it easier for me to deal with individuals or patients who have certain behaviors that require more composure and patience in terms of cooperation from the individuals whenever they have a psychiatric or dementia episode. If you are looking for someone who you don't have to redirect or repeat things to so many times, someone who is humble and receptive to constructive criticism and who is very compassionate, I am your person. I wish everyone well and regardless if you choose me or not I hope that you find a caregiver to properly care for your family. Be well.
