About Tikisha

I became a caregiver because of the love and the relationship that I have for people. I wanted to become a doctor but I had kids and the feeling and compassion for people did not go away so I enrolled in a CNA school and started working at the nursing home but I was spending to much time one on one with the patients at the nursing home and my manager told me that I needed to stop spending so much time in those rooms and my heart and feeling for the patients was so strong that has they got sicker or passed away I found my self sad so I left the nursing home. One of the patients daughters asked about me and they gave her my number and she called and I explain to her the reason I left and she asked me would I consider going to the nursing home to take her of her mother for a couple of months until she was able to. I said yes and that is how I got started doing one on one care. I love one on one care because it gives me the opportunity to know the person and give them individual care. What I like about being a caregiver is making a difference in the client lives and their family. I am proud of raising 3 boys who went to college and are very successful and respectful to this world. I love to talk and do for others. I am a creator, I am a doer and I love to be with people. I have a husband with 3 boys one of them being a step son but I don't consider him a step son I consider him my son. I love sports and hanging around my family. I have been taking care of the elders f

    My name is Shandrisha Primas, I am 32 years old and I have been a CNA for nine years. I am a great caregiver because because I love what I do, I have a passion for what I do. I always have empathy for my patients. This makes it easier to relate to them. I became a caregiver because I tried other jobs and they didn't work for me. So I signed up for this CNA class at a local nursing home and I really enjoyed the class., once we started meeting the individuals they stole my heart. I've been in this field every since.. The part I like the most about being a caregiver is you have an empact on the individuals lives. They actually look to you as family especially if you work with them for a long period of time. A personal achievement I'm proud of is obtaining my CNA certification.

    What makes me a great caregiver is that I listen and watch my clients. I may close attention to small details because at times that's all that matters. What attracted me to become a caregiver is the way I was raised to care for people who are in need and may not have anyone else. I was taught to treat and show respect to all kinds of humanity regardless of the way the look,talk,and dressed. The most thing I enjoy about being a caregiver is making sure that my person needs are met to my best abilities. My personal achievement that I'm proud of is me giving back when I can.
