About Alicia

I became a care giver at the age of 17 because my grandmother had dementia and I had to help care for her. After her passing I went on to get certification in doing so. I like to help people. I like to help people keep their independence as long as possible and to show them that I care. I'm reliable and trustworthy

I grew up watching my parents taking care of my grand parents , I guess it comes naturally to me doing the same . Taking care of other gives you that inner satisfaction which is hard to find in other work settings. I'm proud to be a Nurse . I'm registered nurse from a foreign country working as certified nursing assistant with extensive experience working with seniors with different healthcare needs and trained to work with a lot of diverse cultures and settings. http://www.thequint.com/2015/aprhttp://www.thequint.com/2015/apr/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret/07/female-gender-mutilation-indias-well-kept-secret
