About Christa

I consider myself to be a passionate person. Although my career path has not been in the health industry, I have been apart of it for quite awhile. My father in 1994 had a stroke and it caused him to be paralyzed. I was the first one to volunteer to sit with the nurse and take on the responsibility of providing aide for him in all aspects of his life. I am the person no matter what situation I am in will give what I have to help someone else. I am fast learner, dependable, and responsible. I love to love and help others its just who I am; from babies to adults it doesn't matter all there has to be is a need. My best personal achievement was relocating my family to a new state, and graduating college while working full time. It took almost 15 years being a single mother of six to accomplish, but I did it with hard work and dedication. To show my children that no matter what obstacles they face if they work hard and don't give up anything is possible. Everyone deserves love and proper care and if given the opportunity I am sure I can give the attention and support that is needed.

I've been a manager over 30 years, but having been giving an opportunity to step in a different role was very fulfilling, seeing that I could bring my skills as a manager to help a family in need gave me such wonderful life experience. Caregiver has now attracted me to help offer physical assistance, social interaction and emotional support and much more. My personal achievement that I am proud of, is to hear the patient and her family say that I was their angel, in a most difficult moment in their life.
