I started working within family members by taking care of out loved ones elders and kids. As years pass by I found myself committed to this type of work. Making people's lives better by providing a unique care based on their personality and needs. I'm currently a nursing student and pursuing this path to hopefully becoming a general practice doctor. Which is my ultimate goal. Having more than 4 years of experience taking care of my loves ones and yours. The best personal achievement I have received is the smile on my client's face before I leave for the day. Knowing that I have done a good job on making them happy and I'm proud of it. I have experience working with multiple cases of clients from Alzheimer's to dementia, to a more medical need such as G-tube to catheters. My availability is open and I will work around your preferred schedule. I have both CNA and HHA licenses both valid until 2017. Also valid CPR and RNA (restorative nurse aid) certifications. Best way to reach me is through my cellphone. You can either call or text for an interview. Hope to hear from you soon!

I took care of him through those years until he passed. I understand how overwhelming it can be I have been assisting seniors since 1996.

I am legally licensed to drive. I have passed a fingerprint background check through DOJ & FBI. I am Certified through LA County IHSS program. Worked withVisiting Angels and Home Instead. The past few years I have been working privately with clients. I have found that I connect with seniors in a unique way. I just be myself, I adapt to their schedules and their ways instead of trying to change things. I love to hear their stories, look at their photos, listen to their music also. I am easy going, always keep an upbeat attitude with my clients. I can take blood pressure, use stethascope, check pulse. Also I have experience with g tubes and j tubes. I have administered insulin to diabetic clients and managed medications for many. Always keep the family advised of any changes in behavior or anything I feel they should know. I don't leave work until I am sure my client is comfortable and has all they need. Long term positions are great, but I also work short term jobs. I have worked with dementia and Alzheimer's disease a lot. I am patient with people. I understand it is difficult to accept help. I try to ensure clients that it is alright, we all need help now and again.I have dependable vehicles both licensed and insured. I enjoy gardening, the beach and having fun with my animals.
