I am a current pca and love helping the elderly

Hi! My name is Kathy Masino. I am a retired Registered Nurse who decided to stay at home and raise my 3 beautiful children who are now grown and doing their own thing out in the world. I could not be prouder of them or more thankful for the opportunity I had to stay home and raise them. I truly miss the nursing aspect that brought much joy and fulfillment to my life. I would love the opportunity to work again with the elderly in the capacity of a companion with the added benefit of having a nursing background. I believe everyone deserves respect, dignity, compassion in the elder years. Growing old is not easy and unfortunately Father Time gets us all! I have always enjoyed the stories and the quiet moments with elders. They have much to share and much to learn from.

What is a personal achievement you are proud of ? I start working with my great grandmother and I see the I start loving what I'm doing with out going to college because that is something that comes from your heart . What attracted you to being a caregiver? The love of the old people I love working with them. What do you enjoy most about being a caregiver? That it's a great job and you can learn more to take care everyone.

I am a very optimistic and caring person. I treat and take care of others the way I would want to be treated. I love to smile and bring my happiness and smile everywhere I go. I do get attached to the people I take care off! I love helping people and have a huge heart. A personal achievement I am proud of is being able to stay positive during the pandemic and continuing to do what I love most which is helping people and my community

I enjoy being a caregiver, it gives me a chance to help elders and treat them with dignity. Making their lives as comfortable as possible gives me a sense of happiness.

I have been a CNA since 1999. I have worked in Geneva General Hospital, Clifton Springs Hospital, and skilled nursing units. Once I started working in private homes I stayed there. I enjoy giving individualized care, that way I have the time to do my job with care and tenderness.
