I am a very patient and understanding person. I take time to get to know the resident or patient. I try to understand their condition and needs on a personal level, in order to find the best approach. I am a very strong and hard working individual that has a very strong love for the nursing field. I enjoy it when I gain the respect and love of the resident/Patient. I'm am proud to say that my greatest achievements is that I have always been able to maintain a positive relationship with all of my residents . As a Nurse aide I provide direct patient care in nursing homes and in other settings such as hospital long-term care wards, community rehabilitation or private home settings. Duties can include taking vital signs, assisting residents to move about the home or facility, helping them manage their meals and use bathroom facilities, transferring, turning, lifting or positioning bedridden patients, offering emotional support, rehabilitative exercises, bathing, grooming, feeding, and all other aspects of care as allowed by state laws and regulations.

I've been a nurse for 24 years. My experiences range from the OR, Sub Acute Rehab, and post-op Ortho/Neuro/Stroke nursing to LTC, Hospice and Home Care. I believe the qualities that make me an excellent nurse and caregiver are compassion, empathy, humor, experience, and creativity. My maternal grandmother was an RN in a small town in Maine. I spent my summers growing up with her and my grandfather, a barber, learning what they knew of life in the Maine woods. What an amazing way to grow up! I know that for every person I care for, every life story I hear, every family I comfort...I become a better version of the person, the nurse, the daughter, the friend and the mother I am meant to be. To be a nurse and caregiver was woven into my soul before I was born. It's who I am.

I am a hardworking, dependable and reliable professional and upbeat employee. I enjoy working and I have a big heart for working and helping others. I have been a CNA since 2013, & recently just bought our first home in Kentucky. Just moved here from NC, so I currently am working on getting my Cna license back!

I am registered NUrse in the Philippines with various clinical experiences from hospital to commmunity practice. Here in UK I have worked as a Senior Caregiver for more than 6 years in hospital and community. I have all the knowledge and the best skills with ultimate compassion to provide care to people in need.
